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 ?

There was a need to visit the West Wpg site for some camera adjustments. Since there were eggs in the nest box it was mere seconds before Ella was airborne and defending the site.

With the camera now realigned we’ll be able to see when we have our first hatch here.

Normally we would be able to check on the Logan site remotely but an unforeseen hiccup has occurred.

In other wards it was required to do a site check the Old Fashion Way…with hands on approach.

No she’s not a remote control bird…Spencer (Brandon hatch 2013) was part of a transmitter program.
