I've notified CBC about the problem with the streaming.  Last time something like this happened (end of May), the encoder had shut off and we were able to fix it quickly.  Probably won't be back up until tomorrow unless there is someone on this evening who knows the inner workings of the streaming system.

If the problem is bigger I will let everyone know.

The chicks are fine, sitting pretty on the edge of the nestbox watching the sunset, then a little run down the ledge and now two are lying down sleeping in the box, two little night owls staying up late.

Went downtown to the United Way luncheon today. While my ride was paying for parking in the parking lot on Edmonton St. (about 11:15) I looked over toward the Manitoba Hydro building. I could see two birds circling above and disappearing on the otherside of the building. I was fairly certain I was watching Princess and Ivy. I suspect they were flying (maybe with food) and enticing the chicks to want to follow.

I'm having heart palpatations (sp?) watching them perched on the ledge.

Yellow's trying not to get rained on by spreading his wings and running around.  ::)  At one point, when the rain first started, he tried to get under the louvres.  He's looking pretty drenched. :P

Almost a premature fledge there, but smart little white or silver/green waited, plotted and hopped back up.

Great video, RCF!  After watching chicks for a few years now, I have never seen one so curious. Hope he doesn't get himself into big trouble!!

I agree...great video and a VERY curious bird compared to any I've seen -- perhaps a new name - Curious George?
