Radisson - 2011 / Ivy & Princess
The Peregrine Chick:
1005 hrs
Princess is on the chicks and is tucked inside (can't see her on the skycam) out of the weather.
Sue:
Thanks TPC!! I was trying to fit in locations on the rivers, or Fort Whyte and couldn't make any of them work. Never realized they would go that far out. I'm surprised we haven't seen them in our backyard. We're on the river in Charleswood and frequently have more than 25 various ducks in the yard as well as other birds. We certainly get other raptors - Northern Harriers and the occasional Bald Eagle.

So very sorry Sue, my fault. OHM is Oak Hammock Marsh Wildlife Management Area which is about 20 minutes north of the City (about 1 hour from the Radisson). Its a large wetland complex between Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba - the closest large wetland complex to the City and a Ramsar site (http://www.ramsar.org/cda/en/ramsar-home/main/ramsar/1_4000_0__)

Just wanted to say how great it is to read all the information that is posted about the new family. My classroom and I have been watching for weeks now and it has made for great discussion and writing. Thanks to all who post info, and especially TPC - so many are so much more aware of the peregrines now and have made a faithful following.
Quick question - is there sort of a loose timing of when the chicks are fed - haven't caught a feeding yet! Do appreciate the pics though...

You are welcome and welcome ESP Chickita Classroom!
Feedings occur about every 3 hours at this point, but can take longer in bad weather. Heck even in good weather its a little more flexible.
Question for Everyone: Is it just me (or my login schedule) or have there been more morning meals than afternoon ones so far this year? I'll be going to check the video but thought I would ask the "gang" here ..
