Great that Hurricane is back..
I remember a few years a go when we had the raven problem at our site,.. Remember they nested Right tin the box.
Now ours nests on a building not too far from nest site and they seem to respect each others space now.

Very nice pictures RCF!
RCF:
Thank You and Your Welcome!
The Peregrine Chick:
Oh man, we are going to have to name your camera lens RCF so that the four of you (Dennis and Wowzer, RCF & ??) can start comparing notes on the best way to get photos of peregrine leg bands! That photo of Hurricane's bands is wonderful - knowing what her band looks like, there is absolutely no doubt who is home ;D And I know how hard it can be to get such a clear shot of her on the lights at the distance you were working from. For twenty years I've been going blind at this time of the year spending hours with one eye suctioned to the eyepiece of a spotting scope begging a peregrine to pick up the "right" (correct) foot so that I can get just a glimpse at their leg band. That's hard enough, but I'm not sure that it might not be even harder to take these kinds of photos - more skill with camera equipment than I'm likely ever to achieve. Up close, no worries, those I can do, but I've given up trying to take proper identification photos at a distance, I just can't get enough detail. Not only are your photos perfect for the project's record-keeping but they are also saving my eyesight for which I am very grateful :-*!! And besides, your photos are hands-down the best way to show-off that our birds are among the best looking peregrines out there! ;)
Thanks for taking such good care (and good photos) of the Brandon peregrines RCF!!!
