Radisson - 2019 / Pip & Fiona
bev.:
please do not think because one bird lost a nest box , it is doomed. this happened to Miss Edmonton twice. She went away and licked her wounds and healed and 2 years later, had her own site. Now if this was Princess, I realize sh e is older but also wise enough to know to leave and heal.
years ago in San Jose, Fernando came along and beat out older male. that male was spotted a few weeks later not far from campus and he stayed there , out of harms way. He also went back to same spot the next year , out o f harms way. He seemed to know his time was up. He was now into retirement.
we had a male DO1 a t WEber, that we watched from ground. He lost Weber site, but last year we found him at misercordia. He was n o spring chicken.
you do not know for sure who it was, but regardless, I saw 4 really bad fights in Edmonton last year. some appear worse than they are as they are on backs a lot with talons locked. WE have seen a few on cams , where people thought there must be one injured or deceased and two of these have turned up at other sites.
So the saying , no news i s good news is just that.
when viewing a cam, turn off sound when viewing a fight. Sound makes it sound worse than it is.
talons crossed.

yeah!!! was waiting for another at Brandon :)

Not making any assumptions/conclusions, given the Challenger flew off, and Fiona reserving her right to the nestbox, what does that mean for both the challenger and Fiona?
After a 46 minute battle, could we expect to see another challenge?
If not, and Fiona is the female in charge, what happens to the Challenger?

I know, I'm just weepy as it's the end of an era. I hope, if it was Princess, - that she stays safe where ever she ends up. She gave us many years of joy.
