A reminder to anyone coming downtown to watch the banding: do it safely from street level. For your own safety, please do not go up on rooftops.

Watch the live streaming video of the eyases being extracted from the nest box at
http://rfalconcam.com/rfc-main/streamView.php

There won't be any video of the actual banding, but you can follow the live commentary on Twitter @RfalconcamNow and view photos of the banding @Rfalconcam

Of course,  photos and commentary will also be posted on our Rfalconcan Forum.

Female - Freyja, from the Norse goddess of love and fertility. She used a falcon feathered cloak to travel between the mythological worlds, taking the form of a falcon.
