6/30/2016  ::   Red - Injured?
The red-banded female may have sustained injuries late last week. The beak and one eye may be injured. These kinds of injuries usually occur as a result of a collision with glass or some other urban structure. Any falcon cam watcher who observes red eating should email the date and time of feeding along with a photo, if possible, to ra-epfalcon@pa.gov. She has red tape over a silver leg band on her right leg and a black and green band, 83/BR, on her left leg. - See more at: http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/falcon/falconewire.html#sthash.MWyJ2Y3a.dpuf (http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/falcon/falconewire.html#sthash.MWyJ2Y3a.dpuf)

The Harrisburg cams have been down recently. It seems that they are being replaced with new cams.

This evening, one cam was back online. There is now night vision. Also, the stick has been replaced with a new one.

I never did see any updates on the red-banded female. I can only hope she survived. Until the cams went down, I had been seeing Niecey and Lil Dad from time to time, most times together.

http://youtu.be/l8JZYBk6oHA (http://youtu.be/l8JZYBk6oHA) Seems to be a new man in the mix! Hope Lil dad is OK. Last Sunday he was seen but not since.

New guy was banded 5/25/10 in Clinton County, PA, on the McElhattan Bridge.

Could be just a Winter fling, Beauty had hers also!! Lil dad is 14, so......

Doesn't sound good for Lil Dad.  :(

Post by: carly on 13-Jan-17, 10:22:19 AM
Lil Dad does have a history of going on short vacations later in the year.  This guy is 6 years old, from all indications he's been spotted before so if he couldn't at a younger age displace dad then maybe he just sneaked in after he saw him gone.  

Lil Dad may be 14 but he's a powerhouse, I'm hoping for the best!

edit to add:  Unless something happened to Lil Dad...as in he had an accident, we certainly know that happens even with experienced birds.

Good grief! :o Why don't they have the common sense to temporarily block off that window with shades or cardboard so the poor falcon can stop wasting time and energy fighting his reflection!

I thought so too, Dot.  He's going to hurt himself, if something isn't done.

AND SO THE DRAMA CONTINUES! THERE WAS A CHASE THIS MORNING BETWEEN TWO FALCONS. AFTERWARDS, LIL DAD CAME TO SIT ON THE POINT, NOT LOOKING NERVOUS AT ALL. LIL DAD LEFT AND THEN HE SHOWED UP TO BOND WITH WHO I THOUGHT WAS NIECEY AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE A NO BANDED FEMALE!! SO NOW THAT WOULD BE 4 FALCONS TOTAL! WONDER IF THIS FEMALE IS 38/S'S MATE??? THE NO BANDED FEMALE WENT TO THE POINT WHERE SOMEONE WAS BOMBING HER. SHE'S STILL THERE ON THE POINT AND NO OTHER FALCONS ON THE LEDGE. MAYBE LIL DAD TOLD HER TO STAY THERE? OMG, THIS IS TOO MUCH!   :o

Yes, they have an egg!

Niecey spent the night at the nest, and this morning she and Lil Dad have their first egg.

Niecey looks beautiful this morning:
