...now you've brought to mind "F Troop" (which is showing my age) - but hopefully Trooper (and let's not mention the 70's rock band) will manage to live it down...

Trooper?  :-X   As in, Oh you're such a little trooper?!  Blech, he's a bird of prey not a wimpy human.  ???  ::)

...actually, it fits quite nicely - a trooper can be defined as "a member of a cavalry unit", and a scout can be defined as "a soldier who is sent to gather information about an enemy's position or movements".....  so they can both be military references... 

Showing my age but I remember Gomer Pyle and to me it equates clumsy and dumb as a post but I see your point of view.

A contest was held for a name for this unbanded male and the name Trooper was voted on the most.

In Bev's post #55 there is a picture of the new male that gives a good look at unbanded legs.  The caption has male (phantom) columbus.
Maybe he is named Phantom?

Do we have an identity of the male here?  Or is he unbanded?  Anyone know if he has a name or if he's getting one?

...bev, he is kinda clueless - he was just back in the nest box, tried to tuck the egg under him, just wasn't sure where the heck to put it (saw him earlier with it under his wing) - I'm sure Scout is rolling her eyes & sighing...lots of training to do here...

Scouts new mate is so cute. He seems unsure of what to do and really seems baffled that Scout chose this spot for her egg and not the corner
...and it was such a nice deep scrape in the corner, LOL...
