U of Alberta - 2016 / Chase & Radisson

[bev.]

so I love my pair here and our  main thing now is keeping them safe so I am not say9ing much about where they are.
Gord has been in conference in B.C. but we will get together when he gets back this weekend

know we will keep themsafe

lasr Sunday early morning was last time R was in box .

We had her turn into her spot last Saturday night and then saw her inbox at around 1:10am .  think she had already decided on other spot as she had not come near box , since men were on roof. but I think  she thought she was going to lay egg and came her early morning, as she did nto have time to get to other spot. too bad she did nto lay egg.
she was in box 4 hours

[bev.]

we have found them nesting somewhere else. pretty sure it is them.  S

They are safe and Chase comes back to box at night and sometimes during day. He turns in at their turn in place.

they will be fine and we will keep an eye on them
this is what happens when yahoos go up on roof at critical time.
the other night when we were at site, Chase came to box area 6 times so we were hopeful. He was sure trying but they really spooked Radisson and that is all I can say.

they will back after kids fledge, I am sure.
Chase trying to keep territory safe and i hope no one tries to move in.

Radisson you little terror, if you are nesting somewhere new, you will have to apologize mightily to Bev, Mr Bev and Soaring West for all the trouble you are putting them through!

Hopefully she is just taking her time this year.  Not that she is late, her first egg was laid April 28th last year, April 30th in 2014 and May 5/6 in 2013. Lots of wiggle room though - Cowboy and Joli at Logan didn't lay their first egg until June 1st in 2013.  And they did fine, no problems at fledge and we have had Sundance back in/visiting the province for two years now, so the late start didn't cause him any problems.

I wish I could  but I feel  . We have not had a sighting of Radisson since noonish on April 23. Chase has come in and out of the box but no Radisson.
The boots on the ground, we hear nothing. But, she is Radisson and she ended up here without know how she got here. We will look till the falcons come home.

I heard a falcon near the cam a couple times this evening, but couldn't see who was actually there.

[bev.]

we are monitoring closely. she did come to box from 1:10am apri l24 - 5:54am april 24. heard 2 canoodles outside box somewhere. But she is spooked.

Peter and I are down there as much as we can. fingers crossed here.

[burdi]

Due to people on the roof, she was very upset.

our falcons are missing. Peter and I are looking for them

she is egg ready

Oh no - did people really have to come on the roof right at egg laying time!?  

If an egg was ready Radisson may have had to lay it wherever she could ... but of course I hope that hasn't happened.

Nice slideshow Bev.

Now I've seen how Radisson likes to sit on the moon!

The malabars (aka cheek pattern) of Radisson is the same as her Mother Princess. 

and radisson daughter , green girl, at WEber,is same as radisson. if we put them side by side at cams it is unreal. So all 3 are identical
