Update S2
Gemert, zondag 31 juli 2011, 20.27 uur

S2 is recovering well the last 24 hours from the long-term operation.
She behaves calmly and has already eaten a whole bird. With the food her medicine is administered, antibiotics and a painkiller. This medication is dropped on a small piece of fresh, tender meat and when she has eaten that, she gets the whole prey. This way we want to make sure she gets all of the medication. We must ensure that the prey is not too greasy and heavy obviously, otherwise she will never leave the ground. She consumes little energy now of course. If a full recovery occurs, we must ensure that she gets in a good condition. How that training is going to be done we are not quite sure yet, but we do this in consultation with qualified persons.

That S2 is quiet has nothing to do with her injury and / or anaesthesia. Peregrines are naturally calm, calculated and cold-blooded, real rulers of the skies. Actually quite a bit arrogant but in this case that is very beneficial for her recovery.

In the coming days we will bring you news about her condition and further developments at least every two days. In addition, we try to post some footage on this website.

We are deeply impressed that you are all so sympathizing with S2 and are contacting us about her. For us it is impossible to personally thank everyone for the many positive comments through our contact form. It supports and encourages us and we hope like you all that S2 will properly heal and regains her freedom.

We will keep you informed in the coming weeks!
    2thumbsup

And in the meantime:

Latest news from the tower:

On Friday somebody saw a 2nd colour-year Falcon (born in 2010) with a yellow band on the right leg.
This Falcon was again seen on Saturday and today.
Judging by the size it is a female. The yellow band, with a black line in the middle, means she is born in Belgium.
She has been flying with Pa, no aggression was observed.
It is very likely that this is the same Falcon as the one observed on May 23

Translation/Google


GEMERT - going well for the last week hurt peregrine was found in Gemert, in a meadow. The female was hit by a bullet in her right wing. She was operated on last Saturday. And Wednesday morning, the vet visite.Een connection and a splint on the wing. This should at least another peregrine S2 in the coming weeks through life. She was wounded by a hail pellet. But it goes well with this magnificent bird, vet says Caroline Mommers.

You might not say, but this peregrine has one hundred thousand fans around the world. This is the webcam for years in her nest box hung in the mortar. Due to the number on her ring as the S2's Internet audience.

Gemert, Thursday, August 4, 2011

This morning the vet Caroline Hommers been visiting with S2.
Caroline last Saturday together with her colleague Dirk Riemersma the rather complex operation performed successfully.
Below this message you will see two links through information about their work and practice.

During her visit Caroline S2 and examined her wound care.
The large hematoma in her wing was almost completely gone, the skin looked beautiful pink and there were no infections present. Moreover, a bruise beneficial for the restoration of bone tissue. Even new springs were already visible, is expected to have four weeks of nothing to see the bald spot under her wing. The antibiotics can be stopped from tomorrow and S2 will no longer receive medication. Caroline has the loose debris removal and related anti-inflammatory ointment under the fixation applied. Also listened to her heartbeat and looked at her overall condition, again only positive results, she does it really outstanding.
After the two wings were again fixed on her tail feathers showed S2 see this not so great to find and soon she had both her wings again free. This in itself is not so bad, both as the two splints bothelften are well fixed and S2 remains well off here. In addition, they now feel themselves very well or how she uses her wings and her muscles in her shoulders will also have some movement which later is beneficial.
In a few weeks back to Caroline with a mobile, digital röngenapparaat take pictures. S2 so that we do not carry unnecessary. Then examined whether the bothelften well together and when the fixation pins and can be removed. S2 will then be placed in a larger space so they can work on her condition.

BBC News this morning was also present and recordings. These images you will probably already have seen on TV and / or the Internet.
Later tonight there will be some photos posted on this site and a link to the broadcast images of Brabant. There are not many pictures because we assisted in the investigation of S2 and because they reside in a secured cage. Here too was the importance of S2 first.
