It's been his home for almost 15 years and Erin has been his mate all that time, can't imagine he won't go down fighting.  All we can do is hope for the best.

Just read on a private FB site that Surge from Hamilton has been picked up injured by animal control, first assessment is fight with another bird. He's on his way OWL..they were asking for an ID and I recognized the bands.  Surge is Madame X's long time mate  Sad

You know what is shocking to me?  Here we have two older tiercels the past few weeks either losing a site or injured (since we can't see the cams now can't say for sure a new male has displaced Surge until they confirm) and here is Jack with two sites...I mean Surge and he were born the same year.  I wonder how much longer he can do it given the population increase.

Sorry to get off topic but I just saw Jack on cam and it popped in my head.  confused

Official update from Hamilton on Surge:

As many of you have already heard, Surge was found injured earlier today and is now recovering at the Owl Foundation. He was found by the HMCS Haida, taken in by Animal Control, and then transferred by one of our amazing Falconwatch volunteers to the Owl Foundation. It appears he was in a fight with another bird. His right nostril is punctured, there is damage to his right cere (the skin between beak and head), and he has a scratch on his cornea. He's under the care of experts at the Foundation and may be there for a little while as they monitor how his injuries could affect his eating. Despite this sad news Surge weighed in at a very healthy 781 grams when he was being assessed. They thought he was a female at first he's so big! The Owl Foundation is a charity and does not receive government funds to cover the costs of caring for injured birds. Falconwatch will be paying for Surge's food during his stay...please consider making a donation to Falconwatch to help pay for Surge's meals while he recovers. He'll be eating quail!

Looking at the picture, I thought his cere looked injured..poor Surge.  Thanks for the update, Carly.
