I'm pretty sure from what I can see of her band and given her juvenile age, that its Alice from Grand Forks - one of Terminator's kids.  T2 is not a small bird, so she could just be taking after her mum ...
So now I am a bit confused, TPC... Was there a bird at the Radisson in the last few weeks by the name of Sandie and now there is a bird named Alice? ??? Are we talking about 2 different birds here? :-\

A cargo plane huh?  Going to have to see if I can get a closer look at her, she isn't actually a very large female.  She has a cousin however who hung out in south Winnipeg for a chuck of the spring/summer who really is a cargo plane - largest freaking peregrine I have ever seen!
What was her cousin's name and where is the cousin from, TPC? ???

Yes. I've seen her in flight too and, well, if Ivy or Ty look like jet fighters, Sandy looks like a cargo plane.  :D

Really nice photo Pam!

She sure does!

She looks to be a pretty big size when she is in flight, too!

Great picture, Pam. I wonder if she really is a chubby bird (making sure she is well fattened up for the winter) or would she have her feathers fluffed up the way the sparrows do in the cold?

 ;) Beautiful picture, Pam. What a majestic bird. Next Thursday is Thanksgiving in the U.S. Perhaps she will join her comrades for the birdie banquet in Fargo. I wonder if the falcons have a progressive dinner or is it potluck?  ;D  ;)
