McKenzie Seeds - 2010 / Brooklyn & Hurricane

<< < (116/166) > >>

Rose:
Just back from downtown,Hurricane was on east light so I assume Brooklyn was on the eggs,can't see any one in the nest box unless they are at the front or standing up.Hurricane spent a long time preening and fluffing her feathers in the sun. This is the first sun we've seen in about 4 days and now it's gone again.We had 4inches of rain over the week end,so our falcons would get some wet.I stayed til she flew off probably to find dinner. Since she looked so relaxed I assume everything in Brandon is ok. :)

I second that "Holy Smokes" Kinderchick!  I'd heard that the power was out i some areas of Brandon, but had no idea the storm was so bad out there!  My heart and thoughts are with the folks and falcons out in Brandon!

Holy smokes, RCF, from the looks of the photos that you've posted, it sure does look like it could have been a tornado passing through, out there in Brandon! :o

Thanks for the reassurance TPC  :)

The Peregrine Chick:
So far as I have heard, Brooklyn and Hurricane and their kids-to-be are okay.  They are smart cookies, they would have tucked down and waited out the storm - fortunately, there are a number of nooks and crannies around the McKenzie Seeds building where they could hunker down - and whoever was in the box (like Hurricane) would just lie flat on the eggs - she's small so she would have had even more protection from the wind in the box.

I do have a call into Dan just to be sure ...
