Thanks to for all the updates this morning and last night.   I am still amazed at my great luck last evening on my first time downtown and seeing L'il Miss up close.  I will never forget how beautiful she is.  Now just praying that when she takes off again she stays safe - and also her brothers.

Bccs, on your last air-quality check (ahem), did the fledge watcher(s) mention whether the boys had been seen recently at all? I assume the watchers are still camped out across from the MTS Centre to monitor L'il Miss.

Thanks for all the updates.

Hey bccs you say you are working but really are you falcom watching LOL.  I think work is an uncover operation so you can really see the birds.

Anyway I am so glad that lil' sis is okay.  i was scared when I heard that she was on the ground.  Has there ever been a time when a bird does not fledge successfully and then what happens, are they rehab and if so where.  I am always interested in those little ones who do not quite make it, I know from form that it is better to not have that characteristic in the breed but just interested.

Hope I have made sense in this post.

Thanks

very happy to know she is well (if irritated) and didn't flee the nestbox.  Perhaps she's telling P&T that they should have lived there in the first place...

well, I will probably actually get some work done today.  I'm sure my boss would appreciate it...   ::)

Must be something wrong with the air, cause I have to check it so often. ::)
Just got back, still in the nest box, but she did hop down onto the ledge and have a good walk from end to end, then hopped back up to the box very nicely.
One of the adults came to the ledge and perched there for a bit. She's still noisy and you can hear her over traffic.

Good morning all.

Thank you Bccs for your ongoing commentary on air quality of downtown Winnipeg.
 
Last year it was babies in he Chez Bathroom Sink, last night a teenager in the tub.  TPC must have amused and tolerant neighbours!

Just returned from an " air quality " check. All is fine, our girl is still there, she's been yelling for P & T to bring some food. They are quite aware that Missy is there, so it's just a matter of time till a snack appears.

Argh! Serious withdrawal symptoms this morning when I saw that empty ledge. Thanks for the report last night TPC (do you ever sleep?) and your update this morning bccs. Hopefully we'll see some pics from Dennis later.  What a trip this has been! After last year I wasn't sure I could watch again but here I am almost 2 months later, with my eyeballs still glued to the computer screen waiting for a glimpse of "our" birds. Thanks to all involved in this project. Now if they could only attach teensy cameras to their bands so we could follow their travels. ;D

You got to see her up close and personal!  :o :o :o

Lucky you, but you deserve it! Thank you, also, for all the great updates. I feel that I am very present.
