burdi:
Alley has laid an egg in the nestbox! :)
It's very hot there today, so she's been panting a lot.

According to Peregrine Falcons Lincoln Ne FB page, Alley and 19K are incubating eggs in a gutter high up on the building. They are not using the nest box.

On Friday, I got up early in the morning to follow up on a Whooping Crane report in Polk County. On my way up there, I encountered two Peregrine Falcons close to North Lake Basin Wildlife Management Area near Utica. One of the birds was on a dead American Coot on a county road and the other took off. The bird on the kill on the road remained and I was able to capture a few photos.
On the bird’s right leg was a standard silver USGS band and on its left leg was the auxiliary marker (color band). The auxiliary marker was entirely red with white lettering. This is a type of band we have not used in Nebraska during my tenure (which is twelve years).

Please don't make 19/K older than he is, TPC! He was born in Des Moines in 2001; he will be 17 years old on May 10 of this year.
