Teddy and the frozen Banana!

Thanks nycbird for sending this.

I  Teddy!

Good one Ei!  I like the still pic of the two of them in the nest box. Thinking about using that for update business cards.

There have been a few nice ones of them in the nest box-her crop looks a little weird in the 8:35 one

This morning's chupp-fest!

   

Discussing where to put the scrape next year!

[What is "Mute"?]

What is "Mute"?
   
Mute is the word for falcon excrement. 

What is a “Falcon squashâ€�? 

 When the juvies need to take a break, they sort of just squash down on a ledge or rooftop for a while. You’ll see their wing tips sticking up. Don’t be alarmed - they are just resting.

What is an “Assist�?
   
I’ll use this term when an adult bird “helps� a juvie in flight. It could be the first flight or a subsequent shaky flight. An adult will fly closely alongside or underneath the juvenile to guide it. I have never witnessed body contact but I would assume it is possible. The adult will often try to force the young bird to a safe landing as it guides it either up or down to that spot.

Just in case!
     

Where did you find these?

Mariah & Kaver on banding day (2006? 2007?) by Baerbel

I'm browsing through my Flickr page looking for a particular photo from 2010. I haven't found it yet, but I did run into these of Rhea Mae by the distraction guy at the Sheraton Toronto banding in 2011.

      

Don't think I'd want to mess with her!



I suppose I should have put these in the offspring chatter section, but I think one spot for fun Rochester memory photos regardless of where they are now might be more useful...

[Volume one]

Fair warning-some of these photos are hard to look at...

San Francisco earthquake 1906 & today photos by Shawn Clover

"After reading San Francisco is Burning, Dennis Smith’s superb book of San Francisco’s reaction to the 1906 earthquake, I got to thinking. What if I could precisely line up photos taken in 1906 with my own and combine the two together? I’ve always been frustrated by typical “then and now� photos because the photographer always seems to do a sloppy job aligning his ’then’ photos with the ‘now’ photos."

Volume one

Volume two

Nice look at her bands.

And of her foot-looks pretty much healed!
