Dan, if the horizontal/sideways S was the upper letter and the Y the lower,
you were looking at a female fledged from downtown Seattle in 2000!!!! She
had some real problems during fledging, starting with her first day on the
wing, when she ended up that night in the loading dock of the building just
south of her home "cliff". She had more problems, but she and her three
siblings all ended up surviving the post-fledging period. It was the only
year that our downtown pair have had four survive to fledging and
independence.
I can't tell you how happy I am to hear this - especially after hearing last
week that our little guy from 2001 is alive & well & in Seattle. Two in a
week! The people on the Seattle Peregrine Project will be delighted, and so
will Bud, when he returns. :-) :-) :-)
*Please* let me know if you see her again.
