For the Week of September 15th, 2002

Dan Brauning of the Pa. Game Commission introduces a four-week-old peregrine chick to interested attendees at the May 3rd banding event. Two of the four chicks hatched on the 37th floor of Pittsburgh's Gulf Tower were fitted with satellite telemetry devices that allows scientists to follow their travels (as of September 9th, 2002, the female travelled from Morgantown, W.Va. to Long Island, N.Y. after spending the week before visiting Albany, New York, Waterbury, Connecticut, and Trenton, New Jersey. The male seems to have found a home in and above the Raritan golf course in northern New Jersey.) You can follow their journey by clicking on the Game Commission link below.
