Hi everyone, just got back in gone most of the day. Thank goodness everyone is eating. To TPC there was 100 percent something stuck on her beak ,all the way around,,, like what ever it was had a hole in it and it was right over her beak. Like her beak was inside the thing, like she had drove her beak through a beer can tab and it was stuck there, She never moved for hours and had a great view of it. Looked horrid. Before I came on Enraptured had seen her for 40 minutes try to get the thing off. I looked at other pics of peregrines beaks last nite also to see what was what too. It was solid either metal or bone, and the very end at one point had white feathers stuck to it. I figured that the thing caught on her own feathers or the kids and stuck to it. But you know no wonder those chicks were hungry cause for sure they were way over due to be fed.
Thank the lord they are doing fine, because we were not overreacting, if you had seen what we seen, it was a sad sight. This all started way before dark so the light was not an issue, we tryed to see full screen and that was blurry to see what it was. Either way could see something stuck there, but could not tell what. I have watched that cam quite a bit and even after it was dark, as it is still well lit up, and she was acting so different last night and no bird I ever seen had a beak shaped like that. lol and the bird on the nest this a.m. did not have anything on her beak. I had stopped watching that cam yesterday as I was more interested in "our family in Winnipeg" but got drawn back in when Enraptured wanted a second opinion. He/she got me and Liz. Thanks for trying to waylay our concerns, hope you are not going to think of us as paranoid now.
Who ever took those pics please send them. lol.
