Board & thread are up and operating again. All fixed.
1400 hrs (local) - The wind has come up and the ledge cam is getting blown around quite a bit. Now it is higher than the ledge and with no protection. Princess is on the eggs and she is flat to the gravel right now as the wind is catching her tail feathers a bit. She's cross-ways on the eggs so her tail feathers are tucked up next to the ledge wall so there isn't much room there for the wind to get a good angle to "flip" her like last year. With the eggs, not really a problem, she gets off them and gets back on them.
Forecast for tonight is chance of thunderstorms (its getting cooler and overcast so a definite chance I suspect), but looking ahead, this might be their most uncomfortable day for the next week. Tomorrow is overcast and rainy, but not much rain overall (1 cm/ 1/3 inch) fortunately, wind is suppose to be from the west, so damp not blown and damp. Thursday through the long (Victoria Day) weekend are partly sunny and spats of rain (0 to 1mm / 3/100ths of an inch) daily. The winds are changeable but mostly calmer than right now - suppose to tamper off later this afternoon before shifting to the west for tomorrow.
