Radisson - 2008 / Trey & Princess

[lobi]

Dennis...
The pictures of the chicks are fantastic!  When would we ever have had the chance to see them feed from such a close range.  Talk about up close and personal!

I know they don't make up for all that has happened this year, but they do provide us with a view that we may not have seen before.  And how often do we get to see the underbelly of a peregrine?  Not to mention the look on their face as they check you out. 

Thank you for being a part of this and for sharing what you have captured in photographs with us - be it peregrines, or other marvels of nature.

Can't be that hard Eye-Spy,  I have adding machine, love cameras (taking pictures anyway, not having taken) and even know GAAP!    Already have hubby though.  Must be more of us out there!

those photo's are excellent Dennis. The chicks are too cute but the shots of P & T are outstanding. Man, they have to be the most impressive birds in flight and a wonderful expression on their faces. All of which you captured beautifully.

Ditto!!!  Gorgeous!!!

I anticipate the "social zone" getting a lot of use as we keep in touch until next spring!  Maybe we could suggest some topic areas? 

   Yeah, like a lonely hearts area too !!!!  (SWM Account, seeks girl with adding machine.......Must enjoy cameras)

Tracy, you mentioned that there are three territories in Winnipeg.  One is obviously the Radisson, downtown, the second is West Winnipeg around Ness (if I'm remembering the posts correctly).  I don't recall hearing about the third area.  Is it top secret or can you let us know in which area of the city it is?  Is there anything we can do to help make an area more desirable for the peregrine, assuming there is a building that would possibly fit the requirements?

Thanks for the new photos, Dennis.  I didn't realize how big they actually are, until the ones of TPC holding them.  Wow!

bev, what does "transmitter" mean?

Same boat as you Moonstar.  I only get 1/2 hour for lunch too and am in SE Winnipeg.  Hopefully another time.  Everybody that goes I hope you have a great time!  Please don't forget the camera!!

Beautiful up close and personal shots of the foster chicks. Very impressive Dennis.  Certainly had Princess curious but not enough to take on the role again.

...just posted a few new photos of foster chicks in the Peregrine 2008 gallery.
Some photos from the Brandon Banding that are in the Recent Photos gallery. More photos on the Brandon birds soon ( right Tracy...lol )
Sorry guy's it's an inside joke thing.
Fell free to browse other galleries as well.

Wow Bev, I never realized the details of what went on there although I knew there had been battles over the nest.  - Knowing now that you'd seen a fight, and were very invested in these birds, as we were/are in P&T's family, puts a new light on the Alberta nest for me. -It also hits home how much upset we're going to have to be willing to take, if we want to continue following the lives of Peregrines.  - We can't have the joys without the sorrows, that's just 'RL'. - But I think most of us are willing to live with that!!
