Thanks RCF.   So nice to know they are both doing well. Pictures are worth a thousand words especially when you are not near the location.  Pictures and words are both assurances but we are such visual creatures that the pics are great.  Very nice pics by the way!! ;)

Rose and I were down at the McKenzie building this morning around 9am and both boys were on the black ledge preening. After about 20 minutes Rosser flew over to the communications tower across the street.  Apparently Rain wasn't very happy about being on the ledge by himself and was very vocal.  We talked to a couple, who are lurkers on the forum while Rain did some preening and then lay down on the corner of the ledge.  They left and we were going to leave also, so I started to cross the street and that's when Rain flew off the black ledge over to the communications tower where he perched on the bottom girder.  :o  We hung around for a bit and watched and then I took Rose home.  I came back after that and could hear somebody squawking and it was coming from somewhere near the tower.  I went around the other side of the tower bldg (back lane), I spotted Rain up on the roof still squawking.  He flew off the building towards the McK bldg and then I heard no more squawking, so I figured he was on the lower roof with his brother.  And just because, I checked on the west side of the McK bldg and found a chick laying on the top window sill (seven stories), so I guess that's where Rain flew to after he left the mts tower building.

Looks like it is raining or is that just the reception of the picture?  Nice to see one back tho.

Not precipitation I don't think Moonstar, the direct link to the cameras don't show anything ...
Because of the bright light out there right now, that's about as clear an image as I can get at the moment.
It's bright sun light reflecting off whatever the roof is coated with. I'm pretty sure that chick is Rain( but can't really tell),Rosser has been flying around really well the last two days and might have found a cooler spot but he came yesterday and spent time with his brother :)

When you moved the view in closer, TPC, I could swear that little guy was say, "Excuse me!  Trying to have a nap here >:("

I'll be happy if his brother shows up.  Then we'll know they're both safe ;)
