I know the video was yours but I wonder who posted the article?  Interesting!  The quote was mine from a posting I did under the Radison cam at 8:31am today.

I made sure they knew that RaptorGal - hopefully they won't take your "claim to fame" out if they decide to revise the piece.  I guess if someone doesn't know all our names, RaptorGal and PeregrineChick are pretty close  ;D :-*

I am chuckling here because I dont consider any "claim to fame" thing!  I am just absolutely over the moon that I did see the third hatch this morning after I posted that.  I really think that the more people who know about the peregrine program the better it is!!  Thank you for finding out who posted the article.  We know somebirdie fans are out there!  BTW, you do a wonderful job of keeping us all informed about the happenings and goings on about the nestboxes and their birdie contents. :)

Seems Princess and Ivy are quite the little royals in Winnipeg!

Interesting - the video is mine but the post is most certainly NOT  :-X

Interesting - the video is mine but the quote is not mine - it's RaptorGal's from the CBC website comment section.
I've sent them an email and hopefully the video and the quote will be credited properly!!  And it would be nice if they would correct the times the chicks hatched, but that's relatively minor.

Its nice to get the coverage, but it would be nice to get the facts right too.  The story was put together by someone in Saskatchewan so to be fair, they don't know all the details about our birds (yet).

Just got my first real view of the 3 newcomers during meal time and honestly, I had to laugh out loud.  They kept toppling over, reminding me of the old song "Weebles wobble but they don't fall down".  Soooo funny to watch.  And so very cute.  I'm in love already!  <3  :)

1830h
Another meal for the kids - still just 3 kids and 1 kid-to-be ...
Can't really see lots of details because of the westering sun but the lighting helps to count little heads ...

Someone looks unhappy about the speed of dinner delivery!  Or.. maybe it was just time for a shift-change.

Fourth egg seems still intact, and with little fluffies active and visible under a warm looking Princess in full sun.  Maybe she is hot, or hoping for a food drop or aware of an imminent hatching.  She seems edgy.

 ;)  So cute to see the two of them "chubbling" each other after they were fed.  Princess swooped out with the little carcass of left-overs.  One more egg to hatch!! :)

Princess is back to cover them up and put them to sleep!  Got to get into the right position!!!  squiggle, squiggle,  fluffle-up now...
