Both birds just sitting there, looking out. Must be waiting for a food drop.

About 5 minutes ago a peregrine went screaming over the mts centre. Thought for sure it was Cade at first but must have been ivy.
Cade is still in the nestbox with Bea. He doesn't look to be doing much of anything, not wingersizing, like Bea is doing from time to time.

I sure hope Beatrice gets food this morning. Not sure when she last had some. I know she is a very cranky gal to begin with  ;D but I hate it when she crys.  ;)

It's not really raining anymore. Once on awhile a little spritz.

Is it raining in the downtown right now, msd? I'm thinking that Bea & Cade will likely stay put if it is raining.

 All is quiet. Bea and Cade are perched on the nest box edge. Facing inward. Cade appears to be snoozing on his feet. Bea is lookin around and doing a little stretching. Looks like they had a good night together, although I left my speakers on and turned down,  I did hear a bit of squawking overnite, but no clue what time that was!  :)

I'm quite happy that Cade and his sis are still safe and sound at home.  Thanks for all the posts everybody - it's good to be able to get caught up on the happenings of the day  :)

Back from a very long day trip to Grand Forks.  Had our birds in mind all day, wondering if Cade had enticed Bea out of the box (and desperately hoping not!).  Came home to find 5 new pages of posts ( :o) which were just wonderful to read so I could get all caught up.  Looks like they both stayed put all day (whew!) and spent some quality time hanging out together. I think this is going to be an eventful weekend...

By the way, on our way home from Grand Forks we drove by the UND water tower where their peregrine nest is located.  I will update the forum with pictures and my story tomorrow.  Make sure you check out the Grand Forks thread! 

Oh...and for those wondering... yes, my neck is still sore today!  LOL.  ::)

...I know Cade ate for sure as he just pounced on the food and took off with it before Bea knew what happened. He didn't  share either...
That's right, Ellie, I did see that too.

Guess Mom and Pop are trying to persuade them to vacate their lodgings!  I know Cade ate for sure as he just pounced on the food and took off with it before Bea knew what happened.  He didn't  share either.  Don't know about Bea?

I haven't seen any and looks like slim pickings in the nest box too.
