Andover Peregrines.

Hi everyone - the Peregrine chicks are always given identification rings for their legs at this age. This means that when they are seen in the future we know where they came from. For example we know where all three of the 2019 chicks are this year.
My reason for posting is that the chicks will be given their rings at 0930 tomorrow and for a brief period the camera will be offline. This is simply because when people see humans at the nest they often assume they are being stolen and they call the Police. The camera will be back on as soon as the ringing has been done.
The ringing does not hurt the chicks but naturally they and their parents will call a lot until the process is complete. It should take 15 -20 mins.

Banding day ik heb 1 male en 2 female gezegd. Ik zeg male voorop

Bij Andover geven ze namen aan de jongen 2e letter op de ring is de eerste letter van de naam.

Eerder vandaag

Hazel stond hierna nog een poosje met een opgetrokken poot. De nieuwe kast krijgt een lagere voorkant zodat we ook de eieren beter in zicht krijgen en zal een stuk veiliger zijn

Gelukkig goed gekomen!
