Banding Day Success!!
A big thank you to John Miller for his help to extract the chicks and to the great folks at Harlequin for hosting the banding again tis season. There were 3 boys this year all between 500 to 540 grams at 20 and 21 days of age. They were named Berkley, Harper and Kline, - sounds like a law firm to me but in this case LLP stands for Lovely little Peregrines.
Berkley was named after the building management company that manages the nest building, Harper the new owners of Harlequin and Kline a CPF volunteer who assisted at this years banding. Quest and Sky kept John on his toes during the extraction but no harm to John and they settled back into their routine minutes after the chicks were back in the box. The chicks should be fledging or taking their first flights very soon sometime in the next 10 to 14 days we expect.
Photos of banding to come soon stay tuned.
