It is disturbing that Woodmen cams don't show the bands clearly, and I'm as sad about the apparent loss of Zeus as I am about Archer.  The good news is Hera was just working on scraping in the east box, and you can see the depression pretty clearly.

I would think the new male will be ID'd soon, since somebody posted a pic of his bands and they are a bit clearer to read:  looks like black or green 3 over red A on left, and the purple band on right.

The new male with Hera, Mintaka was hatched in 2010.  "The peregrine falcon chicks hatched atop the Nebraska State Capitol building have been named Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka – after the three bright stars that comprise the belt of the constellation Orion, the Hunter, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission announced Friday, June 25."   http://outdoornebraska.ne.gov/blogs/2010/06/peregrine-falcon-chicks-named-for-stars-in-orions-belt/

Let's hope he didn't meet the same fate as Niobrara, a banded male falcon found dead Tuesday on the roof of First National Tower. Niobrara was killed by another falcon in a fight over territory or -- who knows -- maybe over Hera.

I think there are now four chicks! I saw four little heads up to be fed:









When the chicks were satisfied, Hera had something to eat before leaving with the rest of the food:
