Ottawa's Peregrine family now has their first chicklet of the year,
hatched either last evening or this morning! The nest is still
located on the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Lyon St, their home for the past
11 years. If you need directions, please contact me privately.
Cheers, Eve

Hello Ontbirders
To the best of my knowledge, the bird has not been relocated.
However, the tracking team at Operation Migration has confirmed that =20
the bird is #309, a 4 year female with a reputation for independence.
During previous spring migrations, she has come up from Florida =20
through Ontario ending up in New York State.
Operation Migration is eager to relocate her whereabouts and would =20
appreciate any information.
You can report actual or suspected sightings to Operation Migration =20
at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Or contact Christina (Chris) Danilko
P: 905-982-1096
F: 905-982-1097
Toll Free 1-800-675-2618
If possible, please include in your report:
- The precise date and time of the sighting;
- How many birds were spotted and what they were doing, ie, =20
flying overhead, foraging.
- Whether you saw the bird(s) yourself, and if not, any contact =20
information you might have for the individual that did;
- If leg bands were visible, advise the band colors (usually 2 or =20=
three) in order from top to bottom;
- Anything else of interest, including photos.
Please remember to keep 500 to 600 feet distant =96 about the length of =20=
two football fields away.
Do not attempt to feed them or call to them.
Thanks
