I think she is saying "I am home now...this is my house, welcome - unless of course you are a raven or a human"  :P

Now she is showing her left band too.  Looks like it is all black with light letters. What is Radisson's band like, and what are the letters/numbers?

Just a note folks, let's try to keep the conversations on the Observation threads more general and less one-on-one on details that the rest of the viewers can read/see.  

Please keep in mind that when you send a pm (private message) the receiver' s toolbar is updated everytime their page is refreshed so their really is not need to "tell" them they have a pm.  its also a bit like whispering at a party  ;)  

Thanks!
TPC

The twig was there before, probably came to surface when the falcons were scratching maybe.

Bev: I sent you more shots of this recent visit.  Got a close up of the side of the head this is quite clear. 

I did see two bands but just not clear enough to identify - one is dark..black maybe and the other lighter - green maybe??.
