Thanks TPC, it's great to know that Ivy has no real problem. This just makes it easier for us to identify him on the wing, so to speak.

Thanks, TPC, that's good news.

[The Peregrine Chick]

After looking through all this year's photos again, I have two questions.
TPC, what sort of accidents, injuries or possibly disease could cause the mark on Ivy's left wing?  I'm assuming his flying ability is unimpaired. 

There is nothing wrong with Ivy's flying, and it could be a broken wing feather, or the feather grew in wierd after his last moult, or something similar.  Would expect to see more damage on more feathers if it was an injury and I couldn't tell you what disease would just attack one feather out of so many.  Suspect just a blip in his beauty and that by next year he'll be back to his pristine self.

Those are beautiful eggs!

And, Dennis, how is the souvenir peregrine pellet business going?
