You may have noticed that the old "Twitter" posts are now Bluesky posts ... Twitter now X is getting temperamental both I how it works here and, well, in general.  So I'm also running a Bluesky account - hope to be able to use it on the FalconCam as well, but we'll have to see. I'm optimistic that it will as the guys who created Twitter are the ones who have created Bluesky.  If you want to find us there - just go to Bluesky and search for our handle - @mbperegrines - same as the one we use on Twitter.

So glad to see this forum back again.  Hope it continues throughout the season, now that some birdies have been spotted back in the city.

I saw one bird at the nestbox today, surveying the land.

I hope they are safe from these wicked, cold winds.

A new season, hope is alive!

Hooray!  I'm very glad to know the pair has returned. 
Just how early are they?

It's also good to have this forum active again.

That's great! Let the season begin!

Radisson - no sign of our returnee today, saw her a bit yesterday when it was sunny at the box. 95% sure it is Hazel (2022 Grand Forks) who forced Ella & Pip off their nest last year. Definitely a female, comfortable on site, band colour matches & she looks familiar.

Great News!

Radisson - haven't been able to id our first returnee yet, but our second returnee was much more cooperative. Welcome home Pandemic (2020 Fargo), the male half of the invading pair at the Radisson last year. First thing he did when he arrived was check out the nestbox.

Radisson - whoever said, better late than never, was wrong this time. Was going to start the countdown timer on the website after I took my morning peek around the nest site and there s/he was. Better late ain't going to work - someone is home!

Edited: some of the banners have been edited as Hazel has well and truly been booted from the property. Have left posts where Hazel was resident and changed the ones when Ella was in charge.
