Radisson - 2009 / Trey & Princess
gramma:
What a diffierence a day makes. I actually got some real life work done. It wasn't nearly as much fun as checking in on our falcon family. Did manage to check in every few hours . Saw Trey and one of the boys. Many thanks to the fledge watchers for looking after sis and the boys and keeping us updated on their antics. I'll definately be there next year. Being part of the forum is much more fun than just reading. Happy that Sis decided to take a day to contemplate her next fledge. Thanks to all and good night

Giggle, giggle, i'm being good for a bit after last night, don't get Heidi after me please :-* ;D
Saoirse:
Liz, I'm sorry we all missed you. I was downtown from 4:10 until 7:45, most of the time on the north side of Portage across from the MTS Centre (perched on one of the concrete flower planters, looking up). MSDoolittle was there and Deb, and Pam -- then we were joined by Elaine, Linderlou, Bccs, Allikat, and Allikat's mom. Along the way, we were temporarily joined by three lurkers (who we encouraged to register).
Saoirse:
Not long since I got back from downtown, perching on a concrete flower planter, with eyes glued to the nestbox. Missy left the box a couple of times to scurry along the ledge, even did a bit of flapping while we all begged her not to do anything foolish, not tonight! Guess she decided that being the excitement for one night was enough, because she settled down, with a parent watching from high above. It's quite interesting to see the change in the boys' flying -- they're gliding, soaring, and flapping all over the sky now, looking as though they actually know what they're doing.
Fledge watching is great when there's a group of people who show up. When you're watching alone, you're always afraid you'll miss something important. Also great to meet people. I'll be there tomorrow after 4 -- hope to see some of you! (Oh, P.S. -- since so many have asked, my name is pronounced SEAR-sha -- no, Bccs, your way isn't even close! -- it's Irish for freedom.)

Wanted to show others what we were seeing in 2007 and what is there today.
