Ty a Radisson hatch from 2009 has hooked up with an unknown female being named Paris ( no bands ) and have nested in a crows nest on a tower in Selkirk Mb. ( 45 min. North of Winnipeg )
Only 1 of the chicks have been banded and named Daer, D over 23...D/23
The brother was up and flying by the time the nest was located and will go un-banded
A day with Fleet...
Fleet fledged later in the evening Friday June 22nd.
After some searching he was located...he must have been thinking "what did I do" ?
Early the next morning on my return finds him in the same location. I was fortunate to be able to spend a number of hours with Fleet.
