The Peregrine Chick:
Thanks Bev! Nice to get updates on the grandkids.

Interesting that Radisson wouldn't let her back - T-Rex/Madame, Trey/Madame and I think maybe Trey/Princess have all had chicks be away for quite a while and had no problems after they returned.

GCG:
Thank you so much for sharing this information and the photos, bev! :)

bev.:

I thought you would be as thrilled as me

bev.:
this is off topic here I know, but in a way news worthy here.

So far Miss Edmonton has not returned to Weber but we confirmed Saturday , with Gord, that we a 2013 female from U of a. Green band girl. This is Radissons daughter , so Princess and Treys granddaughter.

I am just thrilled . The story behind this is :
Green girl was such a strong flier. And 2.5 weeks into fledge she was found not far from the University area, by a bridge. We had been looking for her all day , when a friend of mine phoned me and said she heard about a falcon that had been rescued. so I phoned around and found where it was and sure enough it was green girl.

Gord was out of town and so she ended up in the hands of another rehabber. . So when Gord could finally pick her up he  took her home, bathed her and got her feathers preened right etc.( Gord loves these guys). And then  after observing her, he decided to release back into U of A area, even though she had been away for awhile.

We knew RAdisson would not accept her back.  I t was away from area too long  and that is how  RAdisson rolls :-*. A great mom but tough love.

So we went up with Gord to roof of the  jut of Clinical science, and let her go on her own  steam.

Yup, Radisson tangled with her. We thought at first play but nope. She chased her off. We went and found Green girl on back of campus and later on in evening she came back. Radisson saw and just kept diving at her.

We looked and looked and we think  we saw her once after that. But Gord said to me., Bev, that girl is a Diva if I ever saw one and  she will be back  here to nest at one of our sites. Well here sh e is for now, at Weber with Do1

here she was at baning and when we released her
