now some shots of Radisson  on aerial and then she flies off and glides around overhead and into distance over Clinical Science building. remember that  the clinical science building is the nest box building.
Radisson(you can see why I thought one of the kids becasue of how dark she appears.)

I do not know how to start a new thread :-[ :-[
sorry about that . I asked earlier how and ....

Well guys I will write Tuesdays report and then Wednesdays report.

Peter and I got our wires crossed on Tuesday ;) ;) and so I missed some fantastic photos of dad but these are all mom.  Undoubtedly the kids have left.  I will write my thoughts of the season when everyone has gone if that is O.K.

when we got there on Tuesday no one was around. we were beginning to wonder for awhile . then mom , we believe, turns up  and perches on Dads aerial.  I guess I just wanted to believe that one of the kids was still there but I think the sun and shadows are what are making mom look darker underneath. she stays there for a bit and then becasue of  the strong wind flies off and does some nice soaring. We cannot get the pictures we want becasue she is so high up.

the first 2 pictures here are taken front the parkade . the first one you can barely see and if I cropped it you could see it better but this is where the transmitter girls roosts.  you can see that it is a direct path to the University area.  the second picture is the agriculture building which is directly south and is where the transmitter girl recouped right after her first fight at the nest this year :'( :'( I know Radisson has had a great year but I hope you will forgive me when I say how I miss Miss Edmonton.  She is a beautiful girl and was a great mom.
Transmitter girl(could not get her look up . Maybe tonight)

The Peregrine Chick:
Hey Gang,

If it looks like there were, or are going to be, a lot of photos, could you please start a new thread for the day ... it makes it easier for folks to be able to catch up if they don't have to go through page after page to find where they left off.

Love the photos and don't want to discourage anyone from post links to them!  So keep them coming, just keep an eye on whether the thread is getting too long to comfortably scroll through - everyone deserves to see all the images!

Keep up the great work - hard to call watching peregrines work though ... ;D

Nice shots Bev!  It's great to see pictures of the parents flying as they are so elegant when they fly or should I say soar!
