Is anyone else getting dizzy from the wind shaken camera?
eagle63_1999:
Yeah I bet Tracy, can't exactly speak in logical terms to a Peregrine Falcon who has other ideas. I never thought about the circular motion of the wind hitting her from all sides. She's going to be doing a lot of preening when she has a chance to herself.
The Peregrine Chick:
One of the problems the birds are having to contend with (in addition to the wind of course!) is that the wind in downtown Winnipeg gets spun about in the canyons formed by the buildings. If the birds were in the nestbox, it would be windy, but not from every direction. In fact, we made the new box deeper, so Princess could have been entirely or almost entirely protected from the wind while brooding. Sometimes it just makes me want to scream!!!
eagle63_1999:
oh lord Princess had her tail to the wall to the left and the wind still almost knocked her off the chicks. It's a wonder she doesn't lose her feathers with all this wind. She's turning again and will no doubt shift again with a good gust of wind because she has her tail feathers almost directly into the direction the wind is blowing
eagle63_1999:
My oh my when that camera gets shaken by the wind I get dizzy trying to watch Princess and the kids. For now at least the sun is shining. If you all get the rain they are forecasting it's going to make for an unpleasant time for the family.
