The one positive thing about Hope being a bit rough around the edges is that it will bode her well in the wild - after all Mother Nature can be cruel as we know and Hope seems to be a survivor ;)
Thanks for the photos, good to see the girls soaring ;D

Hope is banded and they think she is form the Microwave tower site. I will look up the bands as I have them. I wish iour bands were more colorful so it would be easier to recognize them. I do not have a scope to tell the bands right now but I am able to tell the 2 grails apart most times. Hope is more rough around the edges, just due to the fact that she did not have a s good care as Cassie. that is why my heart goes out to her and I named her Hope.
Do not let the blue skies fool you. It is very cool here although, Wednesday night was quite pleasant for a change and it was warm here yesterday afternoon and another nice night. But it rained all last night and it is dreary this morning . Weather is supposed to improve for tomorrow. I feel Hope needs a lot more training yet as she does not seem to be as aggressive. The nicer the weather the more chance they have of sticking around and honing Sheri skills. still 4 in place last night. I will Artie a report later and pictures are being processed.
cheers
Bev.

These are lovely pictures, Bev. Those girls are elegant falcons already!
I don't remember if you said earlier, but I'm wondering if Hope was banded. You mentioned she was found near Red Deer, but is it known from which nest?
You sure do seem to have a lot of blue sky.

Thanks for these wonderful photos, bev. I am so in love with Cassie. And I'm so glad she got a sister. Wish I'd been in town when it happened -- visiting my mum, and missed a lot.

these are just a few from last night,. the second one is Cassie on top of Ed building . the rest are Hope. You can see that Hope is a bit darker
