Always nice to hear from the kids. The girls seem to stay in touch better than the boys.

This is such fantastic news! We kept wondering who this mystery male was as we helped with the watch at Central Terminal this year. Little did we know we were watching "our" Diamante!  |

Joyce's news this morning was so thrilling! Now Rochester and Buffalo are truly sister Peregrine Places! It's so exciting to be watching the live legacy of Mariah and Kaver! Diamante is such a beautiful bird, so white and sleek, he never seems ruffled like Gleig! A very elegant bird.

So how did the name Diamante get chosen? Now Roger and I have Diamond in the gorge and Diamante at CT to watch!  |

So how did the name Diamante get chosen?
He was named by Ms. Dawson’s Class, School 28, in Rochester, NY. From the Banding Day 2008 entry on Imprints: "For the fiirst time in three years, we have a boy! Our second eyas is named Diamante. Diamante was named by Ms Dawson’s Class at Rochester City Humboldt Elementary School (#28). Diamante is the spanish word for a diamond. A diamond is the hardest substance on earth, just as the Peregrine is the fastest bird on earth. The students in Ms. Dawson’s class are bilingual so they found it fitting to use a Spanish name for their choice.
"Diamante will have a RED tape band over his USFWS band, and his ID band is black/green 21 over R." |
