Yesterday at 05:03
Amur Falcon the Iron lady, survived 2nd hailstorm. Amur Falcon female, survived the Mooiriver hailstorm on the 9th March and ringed on the 11 March in Howick and released, was at the Newcastle roost on the 21st March during the hailstorm and survived! She was once again part of the survivors and released. Value of ringing!
+- 3000 Amur Falcons were killed in 2 hailstorms within 12 days!

Lucky lady
What a beautiful bird
3000 are too many I wonder how it is possible that so many fly together even in two incidents
