Jackson's peregrine falcon chicks officially named by Citizen Patriot readers
A quick explanation about the top four vote-getters:
— Millie (585 votes) — Suggested by lesliegirl, this name references Miller Shoe Parlor. The store sits across the street from the county building and is run by county board Chairman Steve Shotwell, who happens to be a falcon enthusiast.
— Cascade (567 votes) — The Cascades, of course, are Jackson's lighted waterfalls. Suggested by george1965 and by a Facebook reader, this was the most popular name that references a Jackson landmark or culture.
— Coney (548 votes) — We all know Jackson has the best coneys in Michigan, right? This came from an email from reader, who wrote, "I like the Jackson-themed names, and would add 'Coney' for fun."
— Tower (505 votes) — Suggested because of the Jackson County Tower Building, the tallest building in the county and the home to the falcons. As with Cascade, this was offered by a Facebook reader and by george1965.
Name Weight Band ID: Red over Black Sex Millie 2 pounds 3 ounces 80/U Female Cascade 1 pound 7 ounces E/12 Male Coney 2 pounds 2 ounces 79/U Female Tower 2 pounds 5 ounces 81/U Female

UB kids got their jewelry today! Two more girls and a boy. Bailey - female - yellow tape Mackay - female - red tape Winspear - male - blue tape    More pix on FBPP! Local news media will report on Statler banding where two boys and two girls were banded today! Names won't be determined til later in the week. North GI Bridge banding tomorrow morning. Apparently the Niagara Falls eyasses will not be banded this year because the old power plant roof is deemed unsafe!  I like these names.

Speaking of taking care of their building... it didn't look like this the last time I was inside.  Yeah, last time we were there, we were ghost hunting!! LOL Was all dirt floors!! This is the main building lobby I believe. We were in a separate building Donna. Not sure if that one can be restored-it's in bad shape.
