Falcon watcher Ginny Karyn will be arriving from New Jersey tonight at 5pm at the train station and will be staying with me until Friday morning. We will be doing a falcon watch after I pick her up-so if anyone would like to see her you can join us this evening.
P.S....Does anyone have the band numbers/tape colors?
Rhea Mae & Tiago 605 grams male - 21 days old named Trout 550 grams male - 20 Days old named Buzz 640 grams male - 18 days old named Oliver 600 grams male - 21 days old named Raulphie
Which of these is the little fluffy one, Ei? One would reckon the lightest - Buzz - but he's older than Oliver... who's the heaviest. So, as one might say: "What's the buzz?" SUCH a big difference! Reasons obviously include amount of food... but what else?
Say it IS a duckling... I did not know that falcons took prey other than on the wing. I would be interested to know if they take prey from the ground.
They generally don't take prey from the ground. But they have been known to go down to the river for a bath occasionally. And they will retrieve prey that fell to the ground. Archer did bring a duckling once. Probably just right place & time.
