Title: 2021 Red Wing Grain Falcons
Post by: mrsfalcon on January 04, 2021, 10:09:04 AM: The Red Wing Grain falcons are nesting on top of the Red Wing Grain stackhouse in Red Wing, Minnesota, next to the Mississippi River. Feel free to talk about them! We especially appreciate band IDs (band colors are fine if that is all you can get), egg laying times and dates, hatch times and dates, prey observations, and screen caps. If the cam is available, you can watch the falcons on this page: https://www.raptorresource.org/birdcams/additional-falcon-cams/ (https://www.raptorresource.org/birdcams/additional-falcon-cams/).

She went and sat on the perch and the male came in. His bands look like Black/Red.

Post by: Nora in IA on March 22, 2021, 11:23:15 PM: Thanks. I think one other year I was having trouble and Amy asked if the album I was using for the image codes had been shared. That did the trick again. I forgot a started a new one.

Title: Re: 2021 Red Wing Grain Falcons
Post by: Nora in IA on March 28, 2021, 04:57:02 PM: I believe it was the female that spent a lot of time sitting in the sun earlier and putzing inside the box. Don't see anyone now though.

Late morning, probably sometime between 11 AM and noon, they were both in there for a short time....

Post by: Nora in IA on March 29, 2021, 11:29:08 AM: The female was putzing in the nest box a little after 10 AM and picking gravel. About 1010 Mac brought her a midmorning snack and she took it and dove between the nest box and perch and left.
