June 05, 2019 - International, National and Local News
Marion Nash Reports:
2 chicks banded successfully thanks to the great folks at Beachville Quarry and Carmeuse and CPF’s volunteer Master bander Anne Yagi.

There was 2 female chicks this year, good thing since we have had more boys than girls so far in 2019.

We were able to get a lift up to the nest thanks to the Beachville guarry’s lift operators extracted the chicks without issue band the chicks and get them back to Mom and Dad. Both chicks were a very good weight and were quite healthy. CPF Volunteer Lucie Kirchknoph assisted at the banding table for the first time and was very happy to have had the opportunity to help the birds she has been watching for so long.

here is the band information for 2019.

Female named Grace 909 grams Canadian black band Z over 42 Blue tape on the silver band
Female named Rosie 959 grams Canadian black band Z over 43 Red tape on the silver band

Hope they do well and stay aloft.

Interesting. I almost wonder if she wanted them to come out of the box to be fed.

I was watching the stream during this, and thinking the same.

Jupiter and Donna are standing now.

Synchronized wingercising.

You wanna piece a me, punk?

Sad indeed. But she is young, so hopefully she'll have a thriving family someday. Thanks for keeping watch!

Your mother said you have to eat all your vegetables!  And...... She's behind me, isn't she? Hey Beauty! 

BYF says, "Hey mom! Did I really come out of this?"

The pefa pile is getting bigger by the minute.

Actually, we have 4 Hammies this year!

I wonder if the front two are the youngest and the oldest. Look at the difference in the development of the talons. Amazing.

Captions?

Eating, sleeping and pooping is so exhausting!

Dot.ca's head looks a bit better today. Not as much white fuzz as he had yesterday.
