West Winnipeg - 2010 / Beau & Jules

<< < (26/183) > >>

msdolittle:
thanks for the report.  sounds like a nice morning.

bccs:
I just got home from spending a wonderful morning watching the birdies. So nice not to have to leave at a particular hour to get to work.
I was standing in the parking lot and up rolls Dennis. Had a nice chat with him and along comes Eye-spy. Well the three of us started with the witty reparte that we have become quite well-known for and laughing our fool heads off.     Sweet     ;D
Dennis was taking pictures like mad, ES and I were talking with passers-by.
It was a fairly quiet morning for our birdies. The Brat has been identified by Dennis as Nero, our boy-bah-boy. And yes, he went after Beau a couple of times today.
After Dennis left, we just sat back in our lawnchairs and watched the birdies.
At one point, Beau started to yack and fly around the building. He was agitated about something. Sure enough, over our heads from behind, came Jules chasing a hawk. No kidding y'all, a hawk. :o :o
Beau joined Jules and they both escorted the hawk out of the area.
Were the kids grateful for having their parents be so protective of them....... nope, they just yelled for food. ::)
And that was the watch for today.
I'll be back to the nest site again tomorrow and will fill you in then.

... I had a friend over for dinner, he was lovely and went well with a side of shorebird ... (with apologies to Hannibal Lector)

And served with fava beans and a lovely chianti   ( licking lips and doing the e-chup.)

The Peregrine Chick:
Not Nero on the edge in the end, was our number one fledger Annie ...

The Peregrine Chick:
1713 hrs (local) - one of the kids is lying in front of the nestbox cam (all you can see is wings and tail and back) as that is the spot on the roofedge that is in the shade from the box's roof.  Very cute.  I suspect (for no particular reason I can explain and I can't see his "tape") that it is Nero.
