Archer's parents

[Kris G.]

It says on the Rfalconcam Falcon History page that Archer is the son of Freedom and Millie but it says that Freedom and Purity are his parents on Kfalconcam Home page.  Clarification needed for those keeping track.

Freedom & Purity...Archer hatched in 2006...Millie replaced Purity as a 1 year old in 2008.

I'll change the rfalconcam history page.

Thanks, Ei.  I've always thought Millie was his mother.

Thanks, Ei.  I've always thought Millie was his mother. 

Archer does have an older sister named Millie.  Millie & Ellie were hatched in 2005.  That Millie is the one who was nesting on a crane (or some other big equipment) in Oregon, OH 2007-both eyases fell out of the nest but were fine in the end.  She moved to Michigan the following year...I don't think we had any more news after that...

It's good you know all this stuff-  I can't keep up with it all! Thanks again for the info.

I thought I had heard that Millie's 2nd mate was Beauty's uncle?

Yup...

"Millie’s new mate is Leopold, who is now 14 years old and has been at this nest since 1997. It was reported last year that he had flown into a wire and had been euthanized, but this turned out not to be the case. I believe that the falcon involved was Leopold’s long-time mate, Raynie.

Millie’s former mate is/was Swifty, a son of Freedom and Roosevelt at the Fort Wayne nest. Leopold is a brother of Erie, the former mate of Dorothy at the Pittsburgh Cathedral of Learning nest."

Ei,

I think you are missing your calling...peregrine geneology.  How fantastic would it be to be able to have a program that could spit out the ansestry of all the peregrines at one nestsite and then see them linked elsewhere.

You are so good at all these facts, would you be interested in putting together a more expansive chart of the Rochester Falcons?  I know we have the family tree under History, but it would be nice to see the Legacy being carried on by the offspring.

This year we will have to start a new family tree...we have an egg..now we wait for an eyas.

No one can compare to Juanita at CMNH for peregrine geneology!

Funny you should say that...I have actually been working on one since last year-and just did a bunch of updating...that's why a lot of the factoids are popping into my head.  I'm just not happy with the format yet.  I've been using a free program, but I need to upgrade-the full version allows real pictures in the boxes and more report options...this is one section...

that will be so cool.

another question Archers father Freedom do we know where he is? that is not the same Freedom mentioned with Roosevelt right?

Correct-not the same Freedom.  "Our" Freedom hasn't been seen since last year.  A new tiercel (2007 Buffalo Statler building) took over the Port Colborne nest box and later in the season a new female (2007 Cleveland TT-Treasure) as well.  We can only hope he found a new site and Millie joined him or he found a new mate.

Thanks, I thought that is what I had read but I am getting so confused

Some of these nests are like Peyton Place!  Look at last year here...it was tough keeping up with one nest!  And many of the names are the same-the naming contest rules for the new guy in (just forgot which nest) state can't re-use a name of any mid-west peregrine.

I know they are voting on a name for Scouts new mate, he is not banded.
