Barb, oh YES! Got a peregrine falcon tattoo of Libby and Hudson. One of my pics from this year. My eagle watching friend did it. He is a tattoo artist. Picture is coming. Actually, here is the pic he reproduced:

You will do it sooner or later. The reaction of my young colleagues has been very positive. Picture is coming. Don't know what mike thinks, yet. But we talked a while ago and he wants one, too. Been thinking about this for a couple of years.

I love the idea, and am glad you went through with it!! :hapdance: Not sure when I'll get one, but it'll definately happen, thats for sure! It'll likely be Athena & Six, maybe some sort of overlay of these 2 pics from this year's banding day:

The reports and pics were all posted here through the summer, but NJ Fish & Wildlife created a nice page summarizing the highlights of this year's fledge watch, linked from Nestbox News:

Mike - Thanks for the link to the new Fledge-watch page. It was great to see the pictures and read the summary of the trips you and Bonnie made this summer to keep watch over the fledglings. Great work on both your parts!

You're welcome, Beth!

BTW, NJ Fish & Wildlife created a page talking about aerial prey transfers, using pics I took of the transfer on July 10 of this season:

We didn't get to hold him yet. But I am absolutely sure that will be arranged.
