Tower Nest - 2013 / ? & ?
The Peregrine Chick:
Unfortunately, all quiet out at the Tower site too and just like the pigeons at McKenzie Seeds, the gulls near the the Tower site were looking very unconcerned about the safety ....

That too is a possibility ...

Then I think you do have a couple of migrating birds ... could be birds of ours from Saskatchewan or tundra birds on their way south - Island Girl is already in Iowa near the Missouri border and one of our WW chicks (don't know which one yet) was over Kansas last week. Maybe your visitors will hang around a few more days and give you a peek at their legs if only to know if they are banded!

I did notice that both birds have adult plumage, I think the male is the same. In an earlier post I believe I mentioned that I hadn't seen Lily or a falcon with a transmitter out here since you were out at banding day. On September 7th we saw two peregrines here, one flying and one perched but neither one had a transmitter or aerial that we could see.
