I have sent off a letter those those in charge of our web cams. I am hoping they work on cams before end of March. If they do not go on till later, so be it, but we seem to be only cam site that works on cams after falcons come back.

after what happened at U of a last year, if Radisson comes back , she will not put up with any guff

I am not ready. have to get new computer built this week and get last years data put on discs, and I am getting older :teehee: Peter is in better shape than me this year, but hopefully we will have a lot of people interested to observe. We must remember that I do have a life. the cams certainly make it easier for me when they are operating. but we have observed from just ground before, and if cams are not on till later, it will hard to get ID of falcons. ( Peter has new an d improved eyes, so he can do better job with the scope)

so one back at Manitoba and we know they are on their way. the storms may slow them down. We had all our males come back 3 weeks late one year.

eyes to the skies. never know what you may see( bu t do not trip over the curbs
:teehee: )

hi Trish.

we may need lots of help


ACA have indicated that they will not put cams running till April 30. We all know that is too late. We had birds on eggs at that time last year.

I just hope they do not try and access sites after our falcons are home. WE almost lost site at Weber last year as they were up there a day before she lay eggs and our falcons were very on edge. and we all know what happened at U of A.

I hold no weight here. Only Gord listens. I tried already. It is very frustrating after all the work we have done the last 11 years. But Peter and I will monitor from ground if need be as it is important for Gord to know when eggs are laid and hatched. and our concern is the falcons, and nothing else. We have no ulterior motives

They may be home as early as this weekend if not sooner.

Jean is keeping eye out and we will be looking this weekend.

maybe you can email me your number.

ours usually come back at same time as yours CArolyn,

this could be one passing through. We get that all the time.

that is why I am a little ticked at our cams. I would really think if one is concerned about how many hits they get, this would be the time to have cams running becasue everyone all over awaits their return and keep checking.
We will see what Jean sees and then we will go down after I get things in order here

will post 4 of jeans photos. It is windy and cold and cannot be certain but it looks like radisson and it did several low flybys by JEan getting rid of Ravens. Jean has a pciutre of Raven cowering in corner , just a few feet from her

And all of us here know how Radisson hates ravens

so I have to get off forum so I can finish things to get down htere

here are Jeans photos and when we see the one of raven, cowering in corner after being chased, no doubt in mind it is RAdisson
I have to put in jeans comments. I knwo she will not mind

first saw it on top of CS, and it very considerately did a graceful loop and landed on the camera, confirming that it was, indeed, a peregrine. I went across to the parkade but, as you know, the weather is very grey and gloomy, and I'm horribly out of practice when it comes to tracking a flying peregrine. The neighbourhood raven arrived and expressed its dismay and suddenly it was cowering in the corner of the parkade, about 10 m away from me, and the peregrine was doing spectacular low-level flying in front of my face. Did I capture anything? - not a thing, but it was brilliant!!

Peter and I have just returned from Weber and U of a. another ground observer emailed me and let me know there is one home at Bell .

We did not see RAdisson but that is not unusual as they usually wander the first few days home and hunt and rest. but I am 99percent sure it is her in Jeans pciutres.

We did find one home at Weber on the aerial above box. She was big and we are 75 percent sure it is Green girl . pictures tomorrow. ( pretty tired now)

It was too dark to get bands and we could not see her feet anyway. ( had parka and mitts on as evenings are very cool,)

Except for Bell, our other 2 girls are home a week early . If males get home early also , things will start moving quickly.

Bell is a hard site to ID from the ground.

We had E4 on cam last year March 22, in the snow. would be nice to know if she is home

I had an email form one of my ground helpers.

she was U of A for 2 hours last night and saw RAdisson on camera and she also flew around. ( we are saying RAdisson and will get positive ID as soon as possible. ( Peter has super eyes now LOL)

and then she was up to her favorite past time of harassing the ravens.

She will go down again tonight.

A big thank you

Bell and U of A are on at the moment. I heard Falcons screaming as I was firing up at U of A I think but could of been Bell. Sounded like Radisson when she is terrorizing the ravens. AGrium is also on. I posted that in their thread. Now the birds have to do a walk about so we can see who is here. :hapdance: :sum9: :hapdance: :loveshow: :sum9:

thank you Emyrauld :15heartbeat:
BEll
We have just heard and seen a falcon at Bell , in box and some bonding.

will get some tape and photos later.
and we begin.

WE think, maybe E4, walks like her and talks like her. We have to ID. That would be really something if it is :sum9: :sum9: :loveshow: :loveshow:

march29- U of A


Trish was down at site last night and sent me these . Still not 100 percent Radisson. tail bothered TRish,

I am bothered by some of th e pictures also. not RAdisson like . But I have to remember it is just back frpom migration. So we will see


Peter and I will go tonight ( have not been able to go and I have not seen her personally.) not that I am the expert. Hopefully between all of us we can get ID . We will check night spot also .

the way she has been harrassing ravens sounds right but others may have same feelings about them. LOL

thank you Trish
