Birdie isn't cooperating but those toes look big enough to be lady toes ... maybe Lady Radisson toes?

She has her daddy's white breast rather than her mom's speckled one - nice to see!

She is 17 years old now and this will be her 16th year at the U of A. Got her Mom Princess' longevity gene that's for sure!
I'll see if I can't work with Bev and the banding office to see if we can't confirm how many eggs/chicks our girl has produced thus far  ;D

She has fledged 49 young . One year 4 at bridge that were not banded( will also get number of eggs as some years not all hatched, and a few years , some died before banding)
I will now wait till a few days and send you bands and how many died after fledge

That I know of , we had 4 nest in greater Edmonton area. Green girl and mate from Weber just disappeared.after 2 weeks at Weber last year.  Big mystery.
E36/- 2020 - male from U of A is in second season at Miscercordia in Edmonton( 3 males and 1 female) successfully fledged from there in 2022)
