Took the little one tobogonogoning for one more time after skool and spoted, I'm sure anyway, 2, yes 2, rather peregrinish boids riding the breeze around the westnest spot, exibiting all the traits of a berd that makes the rules.  Could I be wrong....... a small chance.  Am I ?  I doubt it .......

When you say westnest, you do mean the West Winnipeg Nest.....not the downtown boids right?

Dennis and I have been out trolling through town since 9 this morning.  No birds at all in the West Winnipeg territory, but we did find Jules hanging out in the Radisson territory, northwest of the Radisson and then on the HSC campus.  Dennis took photos with Wowzer so they should appear in his gallery in a while (no pressure Dennis  ;D)

No birds at all at any of the WW favourite locations however and no Beau with his bright red band (yet).

The second bird was probably the second bird that is now downtown ... you'll have to go check the Radisson thread for more on him/her ...

Great to hear the confirmation of Jules being back in the West Winnipeg location! 
Now, we just need her "Beau" to return!
The saga continues.....

Haven't seen any one on their favourite buildings in the West Winnipeg territory or on the cams at the nestsite for the last few days.  Dennis is pretty sure he saw Jules north of the Radisson territory on a communication tower yesterday so maybe she's just waiting for all the snow to melt in the nestbox or maybe its warmer there.  I know that Madame often used to be found near Garden City when it got very cold downtown when she overwintered here.  Less wind we believed.
