Just so everyone knows Manitoba's Summer Fair in Brandon is here and you will be hearing some people on loud speakers and music on the Brandon Cam. I think it all depends on the wind direction for how much you hear. :)

Oh, how I miss going to the parkade or the bus stop and watching the birds. :'( Thank you so much for the beautiful shots, RCF.

Well it's that time of year, the first Peregrine chicks have been banded and we have 2 more nest site to band...which means that you will be receiving a number of Peregrine photos over the summer mixed with Osprey just for a change...along with anything else that fly's.
Each location provides a different set-up for photographing...and each pair react differently when you enter their nesting area. As all birds appear to look the same until you have a close look...each bird has identifying marks and call.
This is now the fun part of the year...hope you enjoy.
Anyone wishing to be added to my photo list can email me...it's just that simple.
Cheers !
Dennis
ps. it's also fun prepping frozen nest boxes and removing meal remains from the season before in March...
