U of Alberta - 2013 / Chase & Radisson
bev.:
picture of Radisson with food gift from Chase in box. I will compare picutres from last year, but ...
bev.:
chase is younger. and I really feel is same one form last year. peter and I went down and we observed. He does same things as our Chase form last year.
He got back after one yesterday afternoon. was flighty at first and after an hour he gave RAdisson her first food gift which she brought to box
In all fairness to him, he did come in after eggs were laid last year. He was doing well at hunting and started incubating just before eggs hatched. he even started feeding last year. he seemed to go looney after banding. too much happening at box may have set him off.I taking 2 out and treating the remaining one at box for 4 days)
A few pictures
picture we got of him last nihgt after he took leftover food from RAdisson. I f you continue clicking , to right you will see rest of picutres from our visit there last nihgt

Is/was Chase an older looking peregrine?
I thought he was youngish, but maybe that was because he was so clueless as a parent.

LOL! Kind of like Princess & Ivy at the Radisson in Winnipeg, Elaine. ;)
RCF:
--- Quote from: The Peregrine Chick on April 23, 2013, 09:17 ---Do we have an ID on the male yet RCF? Bev?
Looking at how pale his breast is, I would immediately suspect he's an older bird - that is how our male birds look when they are 7+ years old and they get paler as they get older ...

He's not banded, but bev thinks it is the male from last year. They gave him the name Chase because he would follow Radisson around all the time. :)
