Well my sweet Chewey had 1 more egg inside her. It was sideways and she couldn't push it out. Vet tonight, X-rays, Gas and egg removal... $300 plus dollars. Hope this never happens again!! Chewey is resting peacefully now and no more bulge....YET! I felt so bad for her. I'm a new mom to this and I liked it better when she was a he!  Sad

Awww, poor Chewey and poor Donna.  Sorry she had to go thru that and all the expense for you.  Hope this is the end.

OMG, couldn't they keep her as an educational bird? Give her to CPF!! Put her down for what? Don't let Mark Nash hear about this! I'm shocked!   Shocked

And what's really sad is that Pa is pair bonding with the new female.  He doesn't know what happened to S2 so he is moving on and S2 doesn't realize what's happening with Pa.  All because some jerk decided to shoot S2, life has sadly changed for this pair.

Peregrine S2

Gemert, August 12, 2011

Today we visited the rehabilitation center and saw that the female peregrine S2 is still looking very good.

The people at the rehab center said that she is still active and both wings are being used properly. As previously mentioned, the wings are no longer taped to the tail feathers. An important factor is that they do not let the wounded wing "hang", and she can raise it well. The tip of the wing is just like the tip of the other wing, just at the height of the tail feathers. So that is a good sign, but this does not necessarily mean that the pieces of bone are growing together well and that complete recovery will occur. We still take into account that the female peregrine falcon may not be able to return to the wild. That would still indicate that euthanasia should be considered. For now, everything looks good and we are putting every effort into giving S2 her freedom back.

From today we will post an update once a week about the progress of S2. If it should be warranted, there will be an extra message posted on this site.


Sad to think that they would euthanize S2 if she can't return to the wild.  Sad

There are several Osprey nests at Iroquois NWR that Sage messaged me about. Since then,  Bill & I have been over several times in recent weeks to watch them in the nest and just after they fledged.  It was a new experience for us and quite fun.  Love the sounds they make too.
