State to ID 3-week-old peregrine falcons at Ottawa Co. courthouse next week

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, or ODNR, Division of Wildlife will be banding four peregrine falcon chicks next week.

Division of Wildlife biologists will outfit the three-week-old peregrine falcon chicks with state and federal identification bands.

In Ohio, peregrines are a threatened species. Recovery efforts and use of man-made structures for nesting have allowed falcons to breed in Ohio since the late 1980s.

Ohio’s peregrine falcon population grew steadily through the 1990s, ODNR officers said.

In 2013 the Ohio Division of Wildlife monitored 31 territorial peregrine falcon pairs across the state; of those ODNR banded 27 juveniles at 9 sites.

By banding the birds, ODNR officers are able to track the birds' movements and study their tendencies.

Ohio’s peregrine falcon program is supported by the state income tax check-off program, donations to the Wildlife Diversity and Endangered Species Fund, and sales of cardinal license plates.

The banding will take place at 10 a.m. Friday, June 20 at the Ottawa County Courthouse in Port Clinton.

:egg19: I really like that Toledo has their facebook link right on the nest cam page. Makes it nice and easy to check on a nest after the cam has been shut down.... Beautiful Belle is the featured picture of the day. She looks wonderful after that nasty fight she was in last summer.

Sad News about the Downtown Cincinnati Female Peregrine Hatched in 2014
:sorrow: RIP sweet girl
No one likes to hear sad outcomes, but it is a reality that the first year of a raptor’s life is fraught with danger and obstacles as they are perfecting their flying and hunting skills. Data collection has shown that Peregrine Falcons have a lifespan of 12 – 15 years in the wild, BUT that is if they make it through the first year of life. That first year only has a 40% survival rate.

And so it was that the female Peregrine Falcon hatched this year in the nest box of the 4th and Vine building downtown Cincinnati was found dead on a sidewalk in Covington, KY, right across the Ohio River from Cincinnati. There were no outward signs of injury. The bands placed on the falcon’s legs were able to identify the bird as the female hatched in 2014 in the downtown Cincinnati nest box.

The Cincinnati Museum Center was called to pick up the falcon and a thorough examination was performed to learn more about her demise. The weight was well over 2 pounds (the average of a female peregrine), and she had bits and pieces of fresh bird in her crop. She was definitely a good huntress! A brain hemorrhage, clots in the body cavity and wing fractures suggested she crashed into something at top speed. Since her crop was full, it was believed she was being chased by another bird.

RAPTOR Inc. has the necessary permits to have feathers, wings and feet, and samples are often taken from raptors which do not survive to use as bio-facts in educational presentations at schools, libraries and events. In the case of the Cincinnati female peregrine falcon, the Cincinnati Museum Center is able to make use of the body in many ways. The museum is a repository for tissue samples requested from around the country for DNA research. Educators and researchers often request to borrow skins for their projects. Occasionally samples will go on exhibit in the natural history museum. It is comforting to know that even though death was not what we hoped for; her life was not without significance.
