The birds are celebrities.  Regis and Kelly talked about them and they had an article in the NY post.  I will be on the street this weekend.

Peregrine falcon chick gets banded. (Barbara Saunders)  55 Waterstreet

Stephen is named in honor of Corporal Stephen R. Koch, who joined the Army in response to the Sept. 11 attacks and died in combat in 2008.

Matthew is the namesake of Corporal Matthew Bradford, who was wounded in Iraq in 2007 and earlier this year became the first blind double amputee to re-enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps.

Brianne's name comes from Brianne Goodwin, MPH, RN, who helped give emergency medical treatment for the vice president of construction at 55 Water Street.

Ramona is named for Specialist Ramona Chaves, an Army surgical technician who was injured earlier this year in a training accident.
