I went out for an hour and a half but in reading through the last few posts, there doesn't seem to be much action. Sis is still on the nestledge, with the occasional flapping. May head downtown myself this afternoon. If I do, I may try to wave? :-\ I'll be wearing a multi coloured sunhat. ;D

Probably Trey (looked very small compared to Big Sis) just dropped off lunch on the nest ledge.  Interesting how Sis did get up on the ledge in anticipation, though kept to the  inner edge, and popped down before the parent arrived only to make a very quick grab of the prey.
I can't believe I missed that....must of happened quick.  I've been glued here since I cam from Breakfast, didn't want to miss anything.  Been wondering if I should make my way downtown to observe but like TPC and others have stated, it's pretty quiet during the day.  Seems that mornings are best to see activity (I've witnessed that before from driving by).

I drove by the Radisson on my way to work, saw bccs on 'her' corner with a few other camera toting sky-gazers. Yelled 'HI BCCS' out my window but don't think she heard.  :P -Bccs, you're going to need a day off work tomorrow after all this fledge-watch work!!  ;D

thanks, debc52.  except for the bit where I forgot about time zones...   :-[  but I figured since the comments today seemed mostly nice and interested I would help them out (especially when someone said they may want to donate!) and post the same information we had.

Well, I have to go out anyway (drat!) so I can close it up and give it a good long rest. Hope that helps. Thanks for all your suggestions, Allikat. :)
Hope to get a chance to go down and check on them in person this evening.

Thanks, Allikat. That helped a little. Obviously it is my computer, though, and not the CBC. Hubby is going to try running a scan.  :P
Sometimes when cbc refreshes (every 10 mins), errors can occur in the re-loading of information. 
Maybe try and close the page completely, wait a bit and then load it up.

Awww! And to think I was awake at 7 and could have seen it! Not up, mind you so what are the chances. Glad to read that everything is going well. Keep up the good work everybody.  :)

Is anybody else having problems with the cam? I am getting stop motion photos most of the time instead of the smooth live picture. Started last night. Any suggestions?

WOW.....I can't believe what I've alreadymissed !!!  All I did was go out for breakfast  ::)

Thanks for the camera work (whomever is at the controls)....looks like hot shot is still on the parkade roof and little charmer is (not sure where now)....maybe still on the Paris Building?
Sis....is not impressed!!! I think she's sulking right now.  Would rather her sulk away then take a premature flight!
With hopes....Hot Shot and Little Charmer will just stay put where they are and continue to flap away and build wing strength.

Will be back, going downtown to put in some time on the street ...
Not sure what will be the best view, though I think it will be the nestledge.  If Eye-Spy returns, I'm sure he'll take y'all on a tour of downtown to see what's up where ...

thanks all!  I think if they always fledge around that time then I shall always only read about it....

now, having heard about the food-drops, it's time to make breakfast here.  especially as all I see is the parkade roof with no falcon.
