           Fly free, Surge.   

I think I remember reading that someone saw 2 falcons there this past week sometime on fb.  

Yup you did!

"Ann Brokelman Two were there yesterday
February 28 at 9:50am"

Where on FB?  I don't see it anywhere.

What I quoted was in a reply to a pic of quest in the falconatics group.

Thanks.

Been watching her also and have never seen a male there but......others have on BCAW. He's there only as needed I guess!! He's young!

I asked on BCAW and I guess the last male sighting by anyone on there was Feb. 13th.

Quest has taken shelter from the blowing snow since about 11AM and is still there at 3PM

I'm beginning to wonder if there's any male here.  

More sad news from Facebook:

Sad loss of the remaining eaglet at the Blackwater Refuge nest
March 1, 2015 — bald eagle, birds, Blackwater Refuge, Eagle, hatchling, nature ~ by twizzkid
I am so very sorry to report the sudden loss of the remaining eaglet at the Blackwater nest. After the death of the smaller eaglet a week ago, the remaining eaglet seemed to be thriving and was seen active and eating early this afternoon. Unfortunately a later view showed the deceased eaglet laying outside the nest bowl. It is unknown what happened.

 Just read this on FB..so sad..wonder what happened?  Fly free, little one.   

Awesome pics, Bonnie!

Poor Surge, I don't think he will be back in time!

Doesn't look like it. 

I feel so bad for him.

*sigh*

Seems to be an unbanded peregrine in the nest box. The fal-cam continues to be down, but UT's security people kindly created access for TPP only. Would be sorry if Belle and/or Allen are no longer our resident birds.

BLurb and photos of unbanded.

         So many changes already. 

             5:31 48 piece classic. Love the nest!   

Chick Note
We have some sad news. It looks like we may have lost the 2nd chick. The food has been plentiful, so we're not sure if it was the cold or if it had health issues.
