Is that still Princess on the eggs at around 10:35am?  I am trying to learn how to tell Princess & Ivy apart based on their feather markings.  Is Princess the one with the large black spots below her eyes?

I'll read back through old posts to see if anyone has provided info on the best ways to tell Mom & Dad apart.  If there is nothing there, could someone "in the know" please share your knowledge? 

BTW - nice clean up job of last year's poop art! 

Thanks all. . . .

Princess is on the eggs at the moment, more awake than I have seen her over the last few days.

Ivy's on the eggs with his head stuck inside the box - mostly sleeping.  The wind is up, it's blowing "up" his feathers and shaking the skycam and a couple of louvres.

A short while ago I heard whoever was on the eggs chirping softly to him/herself.  It scared me because I forgot that there was audio.  This is going to be sooooo much fun.  Thank you TPC and E-S. :-*

CBC news team just left my school, after interviewing Tracy. Unfortunately, I was "in the doghouse" for a few minutes, when I gave the go-ahead for them to come to my school, without first getting the superintendent's permission. :-[ But all is well, now. Whew! As I said earlier, news item should be on the 6:00 evening news. They captured Princess repositioning herself on the eggs through the digital projector and the large screen in my classroom. :)

Great captures, rcf! :D :-*

Webcam is finally working at school, now that the Kinderchicklets have gone home. ::)

Anyway, Patrice Mousseau from CBC News just phoned me and she is presently interviewing Tracy, for this evening's 6:00 news, I think. After she is finished with Tracy, her team is on its way over to my school to interview me, without the 'chicklets, unfortunately. :( But when I told her we were unable to get the FalconCam working this morning, she was going to speak with a CBC techie person, to see what they could do. So now it's working! ;D If you happen to read this, Patrice or anyone else from CBC, A GREAT BIG THANK YOU! ;D :-*

One sleepy bird on the eggs this morning at the far end of the nestbox. Head tucked low and very still.

Looking forward to seeing a breakfast shift change! Thanks to all who make the camera happen!
