Radisson - 2016 / Smiley & Princess
bev.:
yeah. I hope ours wait a bit though. I ma not ready
The Peregrine Chick:
Top digit on the male's band is a W so am pretty confident that Smiley is back - just nice to get a look at the bottom numbers to confirm - could be the light making it harder to read on the green part of his band, could be the cam dome is a little messy from the long winter (we clean all the cams when we do spring housekeeping on the nestbox) or it could be that the bottom half of his band is more worn in which case it will be increasingly difficult to read his band each year. Whatever the reason, we'll get him positively identified but I think it is him.
Will let you know when I get even a half decent look at those bottom numbers/letters.
Haven't see the female at all today - could just be the weather or maybe she was just passing through. Not unusual for us not to see the female at the next box often or well-enough in the first couple of weeks after they return - there are lots of places to sit and until she's ready to entertain his advances in the box, we may not get a good look at her. But we'll keep trying, nice to at least get a peak at the colour of her leg bands.
