I saw these two on the roof of the McKenzie building this morning with prey.  I took a few shots with my camera and she left and went east towards the Tower site. Wingo left also...not sure where he went. No band today!  ::)

We left and went to the Tower site and sure enough April was perched up on the catwalk railing. No sign of Wingo.

Yay!! Another day another falcon has returned.  :) 

There were two of them this morning out at the Tower site. I think it's Wingo but need a band to confirm. Hopefully he will go downtown to the McKenzie building. It will be easier to see his band when he's not 200 feet up on the tower.  ???

Wingo

It looks like April returned today! She's unbanded but has a white spot on her left malar that seems to always be there even after moulting. I only saw one falcon today but will be checking again tomorrow!  ;D
