Sunday is suppose to be a day of rest.
Someone forget to tell Silver that. In the wee hours of the morning she ended up in the emerg at the U of A. With miss calls to P and B they found a number to one of the other rescuers. Up she pops and down to the emerg to get her covered and wait for back up. Mike to the rescue with Trish in hot pursuit. They waited a few hours to break the news to P and B. (chuckle) and dropped off her to them. Peter waited a few more hours to phone Patty to get her checked out.
( So much for letting them sleep in)
In all this time, I am looking for Silver. Peter told me where she was last seen before turning in. Got there and one pillar over was a bird laying down on the post. Green was chattying up a storm to any parent that might listen. I swear I took my eyes for only a second and that bird on the pillar was gone. Oh Oh... I have watched enough fledge that there was no one in the air. Ok just maybe it hoped back onto the wall and down under the nest area. Just as that thought crossed my mind, 3 falcons are in the air. Green is in the box looking on the all the flying around that they are doing. It can't be Silver .. reason for this thought.. I saw her come down yesterday, with no height gained. Ok. time to phone Peter and tell him what I see, and can he hear 2 chicks on camera. I look at my phone and there is a message saying he has Silver at home.. hmmmm THEN who is flying, after a few minutes 2 of them went off to the north and only one came back. Radisson on the camera and Chase stayed right below the nest. Peter said that it was probly a young one that they gladly showed the way out of their area.
I stayed there waiting for Peter to come, he had Silver with him. Up to the nest area she was going. It takes Silver the same amount of time that it took Peter, came over to us, to pop back onto that same pillar. Just to get a hint of how windy it is in the area, Chase was on the Mas and he looked like a chick with all the fluffy feathers.
Have a safe flight Silver , even if you would not stay put..
