Banded, Named and a Big ID

On Friday 5-29-15 three (3) female and one (1) male falcon fledglings were banded, examined, named, admired and returned to their nest.   Our 55 Water Street Falcons are as follows

Adult Female-Y black/9 green both sideways-Adele

Adult Male-30 black/AN green-Frank

Female Fledgling-31 black/BC green-Candy Queen 55

Female Fledgling- 32 black/BC green-Wesley Kate 1 55

Male Fledgling-09 black/AZ green- Harry’s Luck 55

Female Fledgling-33 black/BC-Bama Bari 55

Thanks to spectacular photos taken by Barbara Saunders of NYDEC the adult male has been positively identified. 30/AN black over green called Frank was banded 5-24-12 at Union County Courthouse in Elizabeth, New Jersey. This makes Adele (banded 5-26-06 at Hilton Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey) and Frank both New Jersey natives that came to 55 Water Street New York to raise their family.

Frank from NJ!!

I like the names too. They sound like race horses at the track.

Good news Donna , great names........

[PatriciaRose]

Awww look at Frank the Falcon! Love the names!

[Bonnie]

Frank is named after Frank M, who retired last year, sort of.  I heard that he is still around.  He is the one responsible for the cam, keeping an eye on the falcons and generally totally promoting them and their well-being.

One of the 2015 chicks has been seen in Woburn, Massachusetts, about 220 miles from New York.

She is banded black/green 32/BC, so this is Wesley Kate 1 55! (I really liked the chicks' names last year.) It is great to know that she is doing well.

She is a beauty:
