Banding slideshow
Today the 3 eyases were banded. Around 09:30 we saw people in front of the cam taking the nestlings out to bring them to the ground. No doubt Sheila was flying and cacking and absolutely on battle station! Havoc however stayd at the nestsite and lokked up to her and down to his eyases. Male peregrines always react a lot calmer than the females on bandings.
For Sheila no doubt her worst nightmare came true! Her kids were stolen! That means into battle to attack and get her kids back! That is what it is all about. This cacking and attacking. It is complete and total war against the intruders.
After about an hour the 3 nestlings were brought back. They seemed to be pretty impressed. As soon as the banders were gone, Sheila came in to check if all heads were on board and left. She must have felt like the battlewinner! After all she managed to force the intruders to bring the chicks back and she even succeeded in them to leave her territory. Victorie! An enormous boost of her ego. That is what happened from her point of few!
After banding the nestlings stayed put and did not move. They were very impressed by it all. But things went soon back to normal.
