Just witnessed one of the males successfully catch his own breakfast !!! It was awesome and well done!! All three kids are up on the rooftop now and were yelling up a storm as our young male caught his prey!
Mom is standing guard as they enjoy a rooftop breakfast in the sun..cant' see up there but hope he's sharing :P No sign of dad today yet but mom was on her webcam perch for the first time days so maybe he finally put in an appearence or she's adjusted to his absence...
Good to see the chicks progressing as they should, a few more weeks and they'll be venturing out into the big wide world!

Mom has been on the ledge since I came in this morning. She's sitting in front of the nest box looking out - it's cold and grey here today. Saw all 3 kids as well earlier, actually saw one take a run at a pigeon but the prey got away :P. One of the boys can now be seen on dad's perch on the ADP sign on the opposite side of the building.

Thanks Carly...we appreciate all this feedback. Keep us posted!

It is the juveniles I worry about in these cases. so lets hope they are being fed and tit there are 2 adults here.
this might have to be monitored

Well Angel finally showed up around 2:30 this afternoon. She may have been around earlier but I was busy at work trying to get caught up from the past few days and running outside at every opportunity I could get! On lunch, mom was not around however no doubt she was out hunting. I have seen the juvies chasing birds but I have no idea if they've actually caught any yet and are capable of feeding themselves. I suspect the 45 minutes of crying for food I heard today with no parents in sight ... probably means not so much!
I did not see the resident male at all today and did check out his regular haunts. Mom was home like I said about 2:30 and still there when I left after work. She has not been on her cam all her day...normally you'd have to pry her off that thing with a crowbar especially first thing in the morning!! If Jack is the same Jack at TR and he's now there more - I dont' know if that means he's going to hang there until he bonds with the female and then go back and forth or if he's just abandoned Angel. My understanding is the 2 sites are too far apart to have 2 nests going, it's not like the Windwhistler situation where they were a few flocks apart.
I'll keep watching. I am hoping there is some sort of error with bands and maybe I'm just missing dad when he's there. Until the MNR confirms those bands - all I can do is keep an eye on the site and hope for the best.
