Radisson - 2008 / Trey & Princess

I think it's Princess ( I could be wrong) on the nest. She's now facing the wall to the right of the screen, and is getting a bit of a reprieve from the wind that is pretty much steady now. But here tail feathers are still at risk of being caught by the wind and sending her beak over kettle.

The wind has picked up enough that the adult just got blown off the kids. Had a dickens of a time getting squared back again to brood but not sure how long that is going to last because they are getting blown off again.

Everyone is new here at some point Jim, so no worries. You are watching cars and pedestrians on the street below. If you'd like to see what the site looks like from a different angle (or two) check out our Photo Gallery. We were spying on the birds prior to nesting with a traffic cam on the roof of the Radisson, so you can see where the nest ledge is located in relation to other buildings etc.

Trey just returned to the chicks, almost 20 minutes of chick alone time. The wind seems to be picking up there too. Trey is trying to tuck them all underneath him but to no avail, he's seems to be resting his head on the back of one chick but it just looks that way doubt he had the full weight on the little one. Yeah the wind is becoming more steady, you can see Trey's feathers getting ruffled about from the wind.

Ten minutes have passed since Dad stepped away from the chicks, they were having a dickens of a time getting in a comfy spot. "I can't hold my neck that way for that long! Gimme a break." Okay now how about a chick hug? "Will that work for you all?" "No some is stepping on my foot."
