Thank you for this information, Helen, TPC & Moonstar. :-* Had a friend ask me about this particular chick recently and couldn't find the answer. Do you know if there have been any sightings of Nero anywhere, TPC?

Not to date.  Might at the end of the season when folks start collating their reports ... there are more nests than webcams and lots of observations that get submitted in a short space of time so it takes a while for the information to be entered and then for folks to be notified.  He's old enough to turn up somewhere and hang about for a bit if he has survived thus far though.

Nero is the one that gave us so much trouble when he fledged and landed on balconies and the ground and eventually ended up on someone's roof.  But later he managed to fly back to the top of the hi-rise to be with his family.

Can anyone answer this question for me? I have been reading through the family tree and don't seem to be able to locate the answer. ::) I am pretty sure that TPC named a Manitoba PF chick "Nero" after the well known Manitoba naturalist and ornithologist, Dr. Robert Nero's late wife, Ruth, who passed away several years ago. Am I imagining this? And if I am not imagining this, what year was this and who were the parents of this chick? ???  

You are sort of right Kinderchick.  Nero was actually named for Bob Nero because he was one of the founding members of the Peregrine Project and that year was the Project's 30th anniversary.  The year was 2010 and Nero's siblings were/are Annie (for Anniversary) and Aggie (our first release site was the Agricultural College).  Their parents are Beau and Jules so Nero is a West Winnipeg chick.

here is what I found in searching 

2010 - Ivy has defected to become the Radisson resident male but Jules was not alone for too long before she found her "Beau" a captive-bred bird released in Manitoba a couple of years earlier.  The unlucky building was abandonned for a nestbox on a building in another part of their territory and despite rain and hail and windstorms, Jules and Beau successfully raised three young - Annie, Aggie & Nero.

I miss him too and half thought he'd just turn up out of the blue this year.
I'm guessing you're not alone with that thought, bcf. :)
