Peregrine Chick Banding

Under a fair amount of protest by Ella and Pip the two boys received their New Bling June 22 at the Radisson Hotel…the banding went well with only minor wounds inflicted by chick talons.
With this ritual completed and a new camera view some may have noticed that one of the chicks has a Red Band.
Why the Red Band…it’s just a simple way for easy identification from a distance. We simply put different colored tape on the silver band if there is more than one chick and the tape will fall off in time.

Meet the Radisson Boys.

Just Doing My Part

During these troubling times I thought I would try and do my part. I had offered FREE Rent of our small guest house at our summer place.
It’s a small one room structure situated in the bush with a great view.

The new occupants seem very chatty and we enjoy listening to them throughout the day.

Morning Osprey Action

Everyone needs a reward after putting in a good day’s work…since I’m a early riser and still much too early to fire up the chainsaw I checked out the action at the local Osprey location.
For which I’m sure the neighbors appreciated.
