Another gift to Beauty: with  Archer

Now that Beauty's busy eating, it's a good time to sneak off to KP, if that's him too over there!

Watching with interest! This is like an afternoon Soap... and already I am finding it hard to keep up...

Who knows indeed, Carly. Simply amazing how they make their decisions.

Good to see you on the Forum, Darla!

Re Carly's info re bigamous PF nests - I was wondering whether this could ever happen but thought it sounded crazy, esp with all the work the tiercel has to do with bringing food. Small passerines do this, right? Tho of course I cannot think of one now. 3% is not large, but still... those lads sure are determined! Keep the info coming, Carly! And thanks! Does this happen with other BoP species too? Is there any info about what causes this... other than instinct, I suppose! Fascinating.

I am a complete jinx for getting to see anyone at home... Well done, Annette!

OK if it is Archer with Lady P and the male last fall with LP had blk/blk bads could it have been Archer then too?

Oh good god, I hope this is not the case. 

I don't get it.

Thanks, Donna - I will hang on to that banding info!

Usually Dan is correct. If he saw Archer at 10:45 on TS, that means that he was not at KP when Carol's last tweet came in about male leaving at 11:00!! Hmm, it just gets more confusing.

Ya think??

Both A & B are banded, right? But not Mr T? Or Lady Pefa?

Bobbie, Lady P is banded, Mr T not.

Thanks, Donna - so both A&B are banded?

It looks like both in the 11.21 pic are banded, which is why I asked.

Both A & B are banded, right? But not Mr T? Or Lady Pefa?

Payback for Mr. T's time with Beauty??

Hell hath no fury like a tiercel scorned...

WanderingFalcon (Carol P.): At KP. We can't be sure, but we are starting to suspect this MAY be A with LP. PLEASE Tweet if you see 2 at TS NB!

At least for now...
