So what is the current falcon scorecard?

1  Beauty (seen today on cam)
2  Unbanded tiercel (seen today on cam)
3  Unknown subadult (photographed today by Dana)
4  Mariah (not seen for a while, but probably somewhere in the area
5  Archer (not seen since last year, but possibly returning)


Anyone else?
