...and I'm banking on Quest!

I'm with you, kat...I'm hearing..."THAT'S the kind of box I was talking about...I knew my peeps would come through for me!"

Keep checking at that link-they've been adding info as it comes in...looks like the one that fell is doing fine. The other one is a bit smaller & is dehydrated...

"Bear cub #11-2531 was the “sleepierâ€� of the two male cubs — still very much feeling the effects of the tranquilizers from yesterday’s rescue.  The veterinary team was able to manually capture cub #11-2531, which did make him perk back up and resist capture.  The bear was then anesthetized and intubated for further exam.  Vets performed a physical examination, drew blood for several different types of diagnostic tests, performed a skin scraping to check for mites, and took radiographs.

While #11-2531 is a little thin and dehydrated, otherwise the cub seems to be healthy.  Dr. Miranda Sadar gave the cub intravenous fluids in hopes that some of the additional fluids would help flush yesterday’s tranquilizers from its system.  Center vet and rehab staff will monitor the cub closely today.  Bear #11-2531 weighed in at 9.48 kgs — almost 21 pounds.   

Bear cub #11-2532 is the perkier of the two cubs — despite a 40-foot tumble from a tree during rescue.  The veterinary team sedated this cub prior to grabbing it for the physical exam.  The same blood draws, skin scraping, and radiographs were performed; fluids were also given.   This cub is slightly bigger than his brother and at 10.60 kgs (23.3 lbs), is in slightly better body condition."

Sphinx?  Carol F. will know. 

...the heavy wrinkling that the Sphynx have...
Of course, I could be wrong, I'm not an Allbreed Judge, though I had considered it years ago

So...these guys are likely Sphynx?

Ahh, hope the one that fell is OK. Yeah, I know, don't worry!! 

I would say concern is warranted in this situation   

Hope they don't ditch us, though!

Not likely they will.  This spring wasn't their first visit to the neighborhood.  They may skip out for the winter, but the nest was successful so there's no reason to not come back.  At least according to the "conventional wisdom" which is mostly accurate.

Worrying is not permitted!

-The new box looks about the same distance from the edge as the old one-and Harlie did stay away from the edge
-The nest box itself isn't their focus now-the territory is.  They may be watching out for those big yellow headed intruders from a safe distance.
-It is migration season.  They may be defending the territory from migrants or...
-They may be on their own road trip at this point.

If I recall correctly, Quest and Kendal had already hooked up last year.  

And this is Quest's map from last October...

The color markers are the end of the month...

So happy to hear MAK is on the road to recovery!  What did she have done to her "foot"?  I guess I have been out of the "loop" on this one!  Well lots of them probably, but I am trying! 

You go MAK!  I doubt much will keep you down and away from the computer and the falcons and such.  Keep up the therapy and do what they tell you to do! 

She had one knee replaced...the other will be done depending on how fast she recovers from this one...

Thanks Donna!
