One of the chicks in the nest eating some "stiff". Lunchtime leftovers. Way to go, clean up the nest for us.

Lots of yummy leftovers in the nestbox right now. Mmm... ;)

Hmmm . . . and some of them are really well aged, too!  ::)

I agree, well aged and dries up in the heat.......pigeon jerky?

Even better ;D

...Didn't TPC put something about band colors eg, what black band signifies,what info is on the silver bands etc.,in a thread a few weeks ago?...
Yes, she did Rose, but I wasn't sure where exactly to locate that info. I really am not very good at identifying the individual birds, Rose, as you thought I was. :-[ Guess I really have to pay more attention to observing their colourings and markings. I can, however, distinguish the difference btw big & little. ;) ::) LOL!

I believe that the black band means that the birds were born in the wild in Manitoba.

Would someone mind giving me the "Cole's Notes" version of birds and their band colours or direct me to where I can read up on this? Thanks! :-*

The coloured tape that she put over the silver bands was just to help us more easily identify each bird in the nestbox and at fledge time,but I could be wrong. :)

I'm so glad that the chicks feel so comfortable in the nest box.
This way we get to see way more of them.  ;D ;D ;D

Well, it looks as if we were able to entice a birdie back to the nestbox for leftovers, with all of our talk! 8) ;) Who do you think that is? :-\

I think it's Carson.
I believe it is Carson, from the markings on his head/face.  Also look at his breast feather markings, nice and small dark streaks -- a Carson breast!  Now just show us your little yellow talon band so we know for sure!!  :D
