Thanks for the great catches, ladies! Looks like bands on DEF's second pic, so that would be Ozzie. :smile:

I don't know how you keep track of all you do! You not only watch falcons, but also owls, eagles, and kestrels, so you're quite amazing! :smile:

Both of you are amazing! I don't know how either one of you keep up with as much as you do!

Thanks Kitten for the Ozzie pics. He looked a little irritated...must be all the vultures.

Somebody was moving the cam around when I was looking this morning, & that extension cord is still hanging over the box.

Beauty ( thats my name for her)
December 3

update from Dr. Miranda

The Peregrine Falcon was taken to Virginia Tech yesterday to see Dr. Phil Pickett and
the news was encouraging. Her left eye is stable (the one that just had a couple of
scars present, which are old and stable).
The right eye is healing well and the area of reattachment is shrinking (just like a scar on your hand would as it heals).
Her foveas (the areas of focus) are present in both eyes and are intact and free of
injury. Dr. Pickett is optimistic about this and sees nothing about her eyes that would
impair her release.
Of course, we’re not completely out of the woods yet.
We still need to exercise the peregrine to test her flight and ensure that she can make
a complete recovery from her shoulder injury.
Within the next couple of weeks we will creance her–which is taking her into a field
on a fishing line and flying her–to give her the best exercise possible.
This will also allow us to make a thorough assessment of her flight to determine if she
is releasable.

Thanks for the update kitten. This is a well documented recovery with great photos and even an x-ray (previous updates). Such good news and such good people who care for these injured animals.
