Duncan Mills nest site banding - Friday June 7th at 10am is a go!
- All Reports

CPF Postmaster Reports:

June 6th - 2013
Just to re-confirm to all, banding of the Duncan Mill Road peregrine hatchlings will take place again this year on Friday June 7th - 2013 at the corporate head offices of Harlequin, located at 225 Duncan Mills Road. A meet and greet will start at approx. 9:30am with banding to take place at approx. 10am.

Please remember that that this banding time is an approximate time only! As you all know, we are working with wildlife along with many other logistical items and the safety of all involved in this process is our first and foremost concern.

We have only just now notified Quest and Kendal of our intentions, and as you might have expected, I can not post their reply!

Hope to you see all there!

Joyce and I are going to the banding today and Kathy is taking Carol,Dana and Lisa.  See ya! 

  Still only 1

Our osprey chick goes from strength to strength here at Loch of the Lowes, and is already considerably bigger than when it hatched on Saturday. There have been plenty of fish today- the poor male keeps sitting on the edge of the nest  as if ‘asking’ to be allowed to take a turn at incubation like he used to, but our female stubbornly refuses to budge, being very possessive of her chick. 

Aww, 1 is good for Super Lady. Less stress and work for her at her ripe old age. 

For those of you who follow the Ft. Wayne Indiana nest. Last year long time female Freedom disappeared and current female Moxie arrived.

"Freedom (b/r U/*8; female hacked in Evansville, 1994) found dead on 5/16/13 a few blocks from previous nest site in Fort Wayne.

...the body was in excellent shape, so it was very recent. She will be sent to a taxidermist for mounting."

Sorry to post this in the midst of all the good news at the Ft. Wayne nest, but now we know what became of our beautiful lady.

Godspeed Freedom.

19 years old is a long life for a peregrine considering all the dangers they face. A survivor...

The Boss is adorable! Fabulous pics as always Bonnie!! 

Oh my, the female is almost twice the males weight!
