PLEASE report any sightings!
I took a quick minute out today to check out the stats for this blog and found something interesting. Three people found this blog by searching this string: black b over red d peregrine
I’m crazy with curiosity! Did someone see this bird in Illinois? Did several people? It’s a midwestern band, for sure, and could belong to yet another Froedtert Malt (Milwaukee, WI) female named Erin, who was born in 1998. That, of course, would be if the B and the D looked like they were tipped over on their left sides. If only the D looked like it was tipped over on its side and the B looked horizontal, than the band would belong to a 1996 female born at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN named Skymaster (great name!).
So, if you are someone who has found their way to this blog because you saw a bird band and are trying to figure out where to log the sighting, please feel free to email me at sware@fieldmuseum.org
You can do this even if you didn’t see the bird in Chicago or even Illinois. Mary has contacts with other monitors around the midwest and the sighting should be logged into our database!
Good LORD, my curiosity is killing me. Ta!
