ESP Chickita:
Well, it was a great morning in the classroom, lots of excitement as the kids got to watch the banding! Can't wait to hear the audio as well. We chuckled after the banding as we watched the newly banded babes all huddled in the corner - the kids came up with so many captions to go with the image! And it was so cool to hear them cheer when TPC held up the paper showing the number of males and female! This whole experience has been great - raise a talon if you too have fallen for this incredible little family! :D
Looking forward to seeing the names that are suggested and placing our votes!

a) tonight's evening news shows (1700/1730/1800 CDT - Channel 2) and
b) for me so I can post it on YouTube - but that will take until tomorrow as the conversion has to run overnight, then I'll pick it up and barring any problems, will load up to YouTube right away and y'all will get to watch it all the way through. We'll also be providing video to the folks at Shaw for use in a piece they are doing for Channel 9.
Forgot to ask Eye-Spy if there will be audio on the video ... perhaps he'll be on later and he can tell us all then.

There is audio, but some of the things them birdies said to TPC, well, you shouldn't ought'a hear it. ;)
(as a note, I have not converted this format of video before for utube, but my guess is it should carry through, and should be there when posted. )

Yes, Leana, I would have to agree, I think that would be a perfect name. ;D

Had the CBC news on tonight, hoping to catch TPC and the banding. Instead I heard the sports news about naming the new hockey team. They interviewed some random people about the names - "Jets", "Polar Bears" and..."Falcons"!!!. They asked a lady about the name "Falcons" for the team and she replied by saying she didn't like the name, it had no meaning for Winnipeg and wasn't appropriate. What the heck?!!! :o??? What a PERFECT name for our new hockey team and ever so fitting since our family lives right next door to the MTS Centre! If only they had interviewed someone from this forum about the name "Falcons"... they would have received a MUCH different answer!!!
I really like that... The Winnipeg Falcons... don't you?
The Peregrine Chick:
Sorry gang, forgot to give you the "colours" :-[
Green - female chick
Yellow - male chick
White - male chick
Red - male chick
Was going to go with light (white, yellow) coloured tape for the males, dark (green, red) for the females, but only one female and we banded her first. We used the same colour breakdown last year - white was Loki, yellow was Thor, red was Isis-Kali (highly appropriate) and green was Aura.
Voting on the chicks' names will occur next week ...
