Radisson - 2009 / Trey & Princess

[willmax11]

Just so others can see what the Radisson looks like. And what the Banding Crew have to come down from the top.

so, safe to say the chicks are not stressed out.

Does anybody know if T or P will still come down to feed the chicks with all the action going on above, or is all their attention stay focused up there?

I was wondering the same thing. Some of you (lucky people that you are!) have offices that look out at the ledge -- can you see Trey and/or Princess at all?

Right now, Princess is on one of the towers on the Radisson roof.

the 'lone ranger' has made it to the chick pile and they are all snoozing together

Wow I didn't realize until just now when the loner chick waddled over to join his siblings just how big their wings have gotten! Wowza!

[pmg]

looks like all three chicks have settled down for a nap before the excitement begins

The chicks have been fed so they will not need any more until after the banding.And Tracy does not take a long time.

the biologists at my site made sure the chick was fed and then they banded.
come 11:00 that other roof top is going to have a few binoculars and cameras going.

I would guess that protecting the nest from predators takes priority. I bet in the wild, most predators or threats don't hang around long to really interrupt feeding . . . not with a peregrine falcon after them! But just my uneducated guess, there.

Two very interested chicks watching the ropes/wires, and one sleepyhead snoozing in the corner, unconcerned.

I wonder where Trey and Princess are watching all this.  They must be planning their attack.
