It’s that time of the season for Peregrine chick banding.

The lone surviving chick at the Logan site was banded on the 23rd.

Temporary name has been Tot since she/he was the last to hatch…now Miss Tot as we banded the chick a female.

She may be given another name in the days to come…hope she enjoys her new bling ?

Nest Sites Destroyed

Mother Nature can be cruel at times…a storm that hit the Gimli area June 7 did a great deal of damage in the nature world.
The extreme high winds took its toll leaving behind two downed trees that was home to active nests. With one Osprey and a Eagles nest both lost along with the young ones…sad to see.
