CRAZY CAM!!
May 20, 2022 :gaaaaah:

3.30 pm that crazy cam op turned the cam to pan the city and lake.
This female is so spooked about that cam!
I cant understand this courthouse having a bird cam and not giving a da rn about the birds!
I see rain coming but not a storm

I havent seen a parent in half hour

5 pm still no parent ... ooops ... Flash just arrived with dinner

Adding this thought May 21
The hawk nest cam pans around - doesnt bother them

:furious:

I saw the outline of a parent inside around 3 am but they left
5 am Aero arrived

7 am Flash drags in a BIG bird and begins to feed chicks
Aero arrives, stands on green, eventually jumps into box
Flash feeds her, both feed both ends of chicks
Seems to be 4 kids but I only clearly make out 3 heads - one may be small

Laughing ... :D

I was looking on YT and found a movie like this.

Video - CheesyCheetah - 2022 Banding of the Peregrine Falcon Chics -

"2022 banding of the Peregrine Falcon chic's that nest on top of the Racine County Courthouse. The tallest building in all of Racine County, Wisconsin. Greg Septon does the banding with a group watching. Their was 3 males & 1 female this year. Names are Poitier, Madden, Powell, and Betty."

I read one A / 21 ring.

Thanks terka!!

Thankfully, Greg will include this nest and band numbers in his final report...and we can get all the bands then.

Good morning all! One boy’s name is “Pointier” - Is that like Sydney Pointier, and do we need to say it with a French accent?

Frankly with such an unAmerican unBirdy name like that,
I'd just say - Potty

:biggrin:

(Sydney) Poitier and Betty (White), both impressive actors. The other 2 are (Colin) Powell (military) and (John) Madden (American football).
These people all died last year

1 up on green
June 11, 2022
Today I saw one of the kids up on the green. :)
I equate this to pre-branching.
All 4 are brown juvies
I call them juvies once they are brown - chicks when white
