Selkirk Peregrines - 2012 / Ty & Paris
bcbird:
How exciting to have all grown up and handsome Ty back and in action!
I wonder if the non nestbox like choice of nest reflects Ty's early life influences of the Tupperware nest on the side ledge?
The Peregrine Chick:
Here is our first and maybe only photo of Ty's and Paris' chick ...
The Peregrine Chick:
The male is Ty, 2009 wild-hatched male from the Radisson Hotel, from the last nest of Trey and Princess.
His siblings are Tupper (we've had no reports on him) and Vesper (died Jan 2011 in Texas).
Don't have a photo of Ty from this year yet, but I do have this one from 2010 when he hung with Sandy at the Radisson in the Fall ...
In appearance, I think perhaps he looks more like Trey than many of Trey's other kids, but I need to watch him a bit more before I would say that for sure.
Just an impression looking at him this year.

(on the gallery photos, note the white/light feathers on the back of his head - he still has those!)
The Peregrine Chick:
The female is unbanded and I have named her "Paris".
The Peregrine Chick:
Another one of Trey's and Princess' kids just reappeared on a nest. This time it is in Selkirk in a crows' nest that is in very bad condition. Bad enough that I believe it was cause of the death of a chick at about banding age. That was about two weeks ago. There appears to have only been two chicks that survived to banding age at this site - the chick I mentionned and the chick that looks to have just fledged in the last few days. That's our best guess at least.
