Quest stays at Cape Cod and travels up and down State Rt 6. She has been spotted by several people, and she difficult to miss out on with her antenna.
Fortunately she is still very much alive and kicking after the remnants of Tropical Storm Hannah passed over the Cape. She was spotted by John Kaar, on the 7th of September. He made these wonderful pictures of our beautiful juvenile. Notice how much she takes after her legendary mother Mariah of Rochester. She has the same light buff above the cere. And a nice full crop. She sure knows how to take care of herself.

Hi, Froona,
Quest is certainly a beautiful juvenile Peregrine,
Do you have any idea what those two red spots on her breast are? Could they be blood spots?

The red spots on the breast of Quest are part of the red neoprene harness that holds the transmitter. So no blood!
She got it sewed on on June 5rg.

Hi again, Froona,
Thanks, I never would have thought of a harness in a million years.
I'll check out the link you posted.
I like your blog so far; I've been checking it for a couple of weeks, since I got the address on Frodo's site.
Jim
Thanks Jim for your kind words.
Quest was picked out of the 5 eyases to be the one who would get the transmitter, because she was the biggest of them. It will stay on her for at least 3 years. After that it will loose it's grip and will fall off. So far it does not seem to bother her at all.
It should not be a problem for her either when she will find a mate in 2 years time and start her own family.
I hope you will keep visiting my Blog Jim. Thank you!
Froona
