Actually, that was brought up as we stood on the street corner - a few were already talking about a get-together for the 'After 5' crowd!! :P

I don't know what the traffic cam means?

TV and radio stations use webcams located all around the City to monitor the traffic flow during the rush hours - morning and evening. They can manipulate the camera to look at different locations. During the peregrine season, I use the camera as well to spy on the peregrines at the Radisson. Sometimes we are each tugging on the camera - they want to see the Provencher Bridge, I want to see the letter R on the Radisson sign!!
The Peregrine Chick:
CTV news contacted me yesterday for an update on the peregrines and whether or not they will renest. I told them no, it was too late barring a freak event. Also gave them an update on the other 4 Manitoba females and the Brandon Birds. Also told them about the meeting of the "Phanatics on Portage" today - so you could all have ended upon the news tonight!! 'Fraid that didn't happen, but they are running a short piece with photos from Black Friday.
It will be on TV at 6:10 pm (approximately) on CTV Local News @ 6. It is also already posted on their website at CTV Winnipeg. I assume the online piece is the same as the tv piece will be ...
Moonstar:
:)
Sounds like you all had a nice visit.
If you ever decide to do this again after work I will make it for that get together.
Maybe next time we will get to see P & T.
Thanks for the update of the visit.

It was really great seeing where the nest ledge and box were sited - in the few times that I drive downtown, I've had to watch traffic instead of looking up (unlike this morning while driving down a country road I was going full speed ahead while looking waaay up at a pair of pelicans - good thing I had the road to myself). Thanks for the info Tracy. It was enjoyable meeting you and some of the phanatics. And you didn't hear from me earlier cause I had to race out and cut the grass!
