Done!

Thanks MAK!  I hope it was one of our juvies! 

Not sure I'll make it tonight after all, as I am not feeling well. 

Oh, what a sad loss to the literary community!   

Wow!  This is worthy of Alfred Hitchcock!

So that's why I've been coughing my lungs out for the last week or two!  I've been breathing in tiny slag particles from across the river from where I live. 

HURRAY!   

And me too!  So I make 12.

  And here's her story!

This was posted on an Indiana birding Facebook page. It's amazing this PEFA has traveled this far in her young life already!

"I thought I'd share an interesting story about this juvenile peregrine falcon I photographed last week on August 24th at Goose Pond in Greene County, Indiana. The falcon had legs bands on both legs. The right leg band was all yellow and t...he all black left leg band read S over 29. With the band information, John Castrale, Non-game Bird Specialist with IDNR was able to help track down the origin of the falcon. It was found that when only 23 days old the bird was banded on May 30, 2013 at Kitchener Ontario (about 30 miles west of Toronto). The bird was determined to be a female and weighed just 866 grams on May 30th and she was one of three chicks in the nest. I calculated that this peregrine falcon flew approximately 552 miles and was only 106 days old when I photographed it on August 21st"   

What a girl, like our Quest! 

Wow, what a great photograph and a great story!  Thanks for posting, Donna.  It looks like she's got cat ears.   

Sounds like fun.  I think I'll join you.  I hope Harold can come too.   

I could barely see the top of OCSR as I was walking down Main Street about 1/2 hour ago.  It feels like a rainforest here. 

I love this cam from Down Under!  Just when we start missing our pefas and juvies here, we get to start watching Swift and Beau creating their family!   

YAY!  Thanks, Kris! 

Oh, how sad!   

Wow!
