McKenzie Seeds - 2017 / Sol & Hurricane
RCF:
Out on the nest edge practicing! At one point it looked like she was trying to get on the broomstick (perch bar) but it is a fair jump down maybe 8 inches. The perch bar used to be on the top board before the new nest box was installed, the chicks used to just walk onto it. We watched Luck from 2009 make it bounce up and down when she was wingersizing! 8)

At the last report I had, the Tower site was quiet. We've moved the nestbox to a new spot which might be a bit more attractive but I suspect not. Next year though it looks as though we will be able to get the box up as high as we can get it - hopefully that will make it much more appealing! Fingers crossed at least. Perhaps one of Hurricane's chicks will return to town and decide that's the place for them .. who knows!

Thanks, TPC! That would be exciting to have another nesting pair in Brandon.

She is a nice looking bird I'm sorry real life conspired to prevent us from banding her - it would have been cool to see what she may have gotten up to in he future. But she's safe and she has her future in front of her and that is really all that is necessary - the rest is a bonus.
