NE / Omaha - Woodmen Tower - 2009-21
RCF:
Four chicks have hatched. :)
The Peregrine Chick:
2014 NESTING SEASON
Mintaka and Hera are back as of this week are apparently showing interest in both their available nestboxes. In fact, Woodmen have a contest going to see which box they choose.
The Peregrine Chick:
All the chicks have fledged successfully and there have been no reports of mortalities this year (so far).
One of the adults came back to hang out at the nestbox recently though ...

The Peregrine Chick:
I was chatting with the Omaha folks and finally remembered to ask when was Mintaka's first year in Omaha - the answer is 2012 so not Zeus here with Hera this year as we originally thought!
Rose:
Watched the banding, not impressed! ::) Too many people milling around with cameras (big cameras, small cameras, and TV camera), getting in front of the countertop where the Bander and helpers were working with the chicks but I suppose that's one way they get their financing, the more people the more money! :o I did notice that no one except the banding crew touched the chicks and the chicks were quite vocal at times.
