Peregrine chick in S.B. needs rehab (cached page -->

South Bend Tribune - 9:00 a.m. EDT, July 30, 2011

SOUTH BEND -- One of the two peregrine falcon chicks that hatched this spring on top of County-City Building is heading to Monroe, Mich., for rehabilitation.

Carol Riewe, a local naturalist and raptor rehabilitator, said the young falcon is unable to fly, but it has no signs of broken bones, dislocations or other injuries.

A master falconer in Monroe is volunteering to do the rehabilitation, Riewe said. The bird will be released if it's flight worthy, or placed with an educational group if it's not.

"Not only does she have to fly, she has to fly well enough to hunt," Riewe said. "Otherwise, there's no point in putting her out, because she'll starve."

The other chick that hatched in May is doing well and has been seen flying around downtown, Riewe said.

An update regarding the juvie is on the Utopia Wildlife Rehabilitators FB page and as Alison reported she cannot be released due to vision problems.
"Queen Wilhelmina" as she is now known, will be used as an education bird.
Long live the Queen!

Since this beautiful little juvie is not releasable, I am glad that she seems to have found a good, safe home where she will be well cared for.
