Falcon banding to be live-streamed Thursday
JERSEY CITY -- For the first time in real time, people will be able to watch a the banding of a peregrine falcon chick in its nest box atop a building in New Jersey's second-largest city.

In addition to the Facebook page of Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, the New Jersey Herald will also provide a link to the event at 10:15 a.m. on Thursday.

I assume so. They band in a large room in the building right next to the door to the scrape.

The mayor

He was trying to ask a question, but the baby was too loud (shocker), so she had to....so he could be heard.

Measuring the beak

I wonder what they are doing. They still haven't brought Noisy Nelly back!! I can hear a parent..

RE: Union

I don't usually scroll back through the comments, but did just a few minutes ago..

Posted by Betty Ann Kelly on 6/18...


    The vet who is doing the necropsy is waiting for the toxicology/pathology report on the tissues for the eyas that most recently died. No sign of trichomoniasis however and that would have been the only thing that could have been treated. The wildlife biologist suggests that poison ingested by a prey bird may have been the cause as the decline in the eyas's health was rapid. We will know more once the report is done.....No parasites or maggots.

I just pray it is not poison as it would have huge implications for birds in general, but especially Mom and Dad and other raptors in the area. If it is poison, what a terrible way for this baby to die. I am so thankful Dad made the decision he did.. :tissue:

Jersey City: From Donna on rfalconcam:

It's a HUGE girl! BD/62

Black/Green

Just checked and she's splayed face down in the left corner of the scrape. She must have been fed.
