On May 22, 2023, the four 3-4 week old eyases were banded for future tracking. Kathy Clark, Acting Chief of the NJDEP Fish & Wildlife Endangered and Nongame Species Program, Union County staff and a few guests ventured onto the roof of the Union County Courthouse, bagged young and brought them inside to stay cool and calm for banding. Everything that happened outside was streamed live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All young were determined to be female, which is the same as last year! They were all banded with both federal and state auxiliary bands, which allow biolgists, photographers and birders to be able to identify them in the field (when alive). Their bands are: BN\/23, BN\/24, BN\/25 & BN\/26. All were healthy with blood samples taken for lead analysis. Every day they are dropping more white downy plumage which is showing their brown body and flight feathers. Soon they will be venturing further and further from the nest box as they start to strengthen their wing muscles for their first flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to all who support the UC Falcon Cam!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
