Very interesting but I'm not sure I'd want to be laying on the floor in that white dress! LOL! :D Do you know if the renos have begun for the condos yet, rcf? 

Not much done last time we were there (box installation day) and it really hadn't changed much all summer, so I suspect it hasn't progressed too much since there.

One thing I can say is that the building looks very clean in that video - heck those windows are gorgeous!!   :o :D ;)

Very interesting to see the inside of the McKenzie Building!  I enjoyed the music video as well!  Thanks rcf! :)

This really has nothing to do with the peregrines at the McKenzie building but I thought it was interesting to see. It shows the inside of the McKenzie building where a music video was shot by local act Misty Street and was shared recently on YouTube.  :)

...Maybe we could get EyeSpy to rig up a vacancy/no vacancy illuminated sign for that wall next year ... one we can remotely activate ...
LOL! That would be hilarious! Good one TPC! ;)

Perhaps we should have put a little Smiley Face on the side of the nest box   ??? ???


You can delete this if you want Tracy. I was just playing with the picture.   ;D



Nope, it works and it is on-topic :)
At the time of installation, I think some of the suggestions were "Dan's Nestbox" and "Not for Rent" came up so your smiley has good company  ;

Love it! Wonder if Hurricane and Brooklyn would approve? Or would they even notice? (Are peregrines colour-blind?)

So far there hasn't been any significant accumulation of snow on the nest box and we have had the snow fall.  I'm am sure there will be more before winter is over.

LOL! Not much accumulation of snow there, yet. I really thought you might have had a lot more snow than that by now, rcf, especially after Friday's snowfall. Did you get the same as in Winnipeg? It was very slippery and traffic was very slow here in Winnipeg. BOT, looking forward to seeing a nice snowy photo one of these fine days, for TPC's collection. :)

No, there hasn't been much accumulation of snow here at all, which I said in my last post.  ;)   I have no clue if Brandon has the same or more or less snow as Winnipeg, I really could not tell you.  ???

Hey RCF - if there is snow on the box, do you think you could get a photo or two for me?  I have started collecting photos of nestboxes with snow on/in them, they look so quiet and lonely waiting for the peregrines to return.

Such a fine nestbox!
