U of Alberta - 2010 / ? & Radisson

[bev.]

The cams are a 30 second refresh. I use the old Java program. I cannot get cams with new one

I am going to try and get a 10 second refresh. I have a meeting tomorrow.

We do not have live streaming.I do not mind ,no live streaming. Things seem so calm that way.

The cams are 10 second (I think) refresh - you have to watch closely at times to see any movement. Sometimes it's only a few feathers that have moved. Quite often all I see is just the slightest turn of the head. I haven't seen a feeding yet, that would probably show a bit more movement. We're spoiled with our live stream.

Thanks for the photos, bev. Glad to hear the chicks seem to be doing well.  I have tried to check out the webcam there several times recently and can't seem to get it to work... I know that there are 3 webcams, but I can't get any of them to work. Only a still photo on each webcam. Is it live streaming? Do you have any tips for me?

[Ellie]

Thanks for the shots of Mom and the tiny mouths looking for more!

So nice to see all the shots at feeding time.  Thanks, Bev!

then Radisson came back with food, then left. then Radisson came back and fed some more, left and  then came back. Very hard to see

I posted quite a few in hopes you could see all 3 , but...

That Ivy is very likeable isn't he?  Good genes!

Oops, realized I'm in the Edmonton, not Winnipeg thread.
Damon, here, is obviously possessed of the same devoted father traits.

I think the reason Radisson lets Damon do so much is he taught her to begin with.  He was the seasoned veteran.Princess is teaching Ivy and he is learning.

Some pairs are more equal partners than others.  T-Rex used to kick females out of the nest and would do more than half of the incubating and brooding.  Madame did most of the nest duties with her first mate Pop, then was happy to let T-Rex do his fair share, did most of it again with Simba, then shared pretty evenly with Trey.  Princess and Trey were even partners right from the start.  Ivy is pretty in there for a new dad - never seen this many meals, certainly have never considered peregrine chicks to be grazers!!!  Shift changes have been pretty regular between Princess and Ivy as well - she may have more, but he appears to be never far away and always ready for duty.  So, every bird is different which means every pair is different ... some might come with age, some it just starts the way it continues.  Suspect Ivy will always be a close-to-home-Dad, he was the same way in West Winnipeg from 2007-2009.
