Radisson - 2015 / Smiley & Princess
The Peregrine Chick:
Smiley is back in the nestbox - nice looking scrape in the back of the box.
The female hasn't shown much interest, but it is early days yet ...
Here are the arrival dates from last year in case they are of interest ...
March 23 - Princess @ Radisson
March 27 - Beatrix @ West Winnipeg
April 2 - Hart @ Radisson
April 6 - Beau @ West Winnipeg + Brooklyn @ McKenzie Seeds
April 9 - Hurricane @ McKenzie Seeds + Smiley @ Radisson - Hart moved to Logan
April 12 - Joli @ Logan

April 20 - first bird (no ID) @ Brandon Tower
April 26 - second bird (no ID) @ Brandon Tower

Sure hope we have Princess back, she's such a great mom.
I forget how nerve wracking the spring is each year. We fret and worry like an expectant father pacing in the delivery room.
The Peregrine Chick:
I've been going through recordings today and I'm pretty comfortable saying that our resident male at the Radisson right now is Smiley from last year. Haven't been able to duplicate the perfectly focused band photos of Dennis, but he did a little dance in the box and I'm pretty sure I saw all the numbers on his leg band.
One down, one to go. I'd be surprised if the female turns out not to be Princess though ... just so many of her classic feather patterns and I know the band colour is correct, but like always, she doesn't come anywhere near the webcams before she starts nesting. Pretty sure we will have to rely on Dennis and one of the Wowzers to confirm her identity.
Pam:
one bird meaning one falcon, for sure.....back to me, though, so no clue as to id.....

I saw one bird sitting on the ledge of the Sterling Bldg (south side, Portage) around 11:15 this morning.....
