Are there two there? The feed isn't great 8) but in full screen it looks like two ultrasound pictures from the late 80s.  :)

I'm never sure which cam to leave "up" - the ledge cam helps to see if anyone came by but no detail - the box, you can see detail but only of the box.

Maybe today we'll watch the box ...

Went back to the recordings here - McDermot came to the nestbox around 5am and he hung around after Ivy came by with a meal.  At 5pm, Fleet was at the nestbox and he hung around until after Ivy came to the box with food.  Bit of a trend going here ...


Must have something to do with food!   ;D

Anyone have any sightings of these four today?

I'm concerned that there hasn't been any updates/sightings of Jubilee.

It isn't unusual not to have sightings - lots of birds just "vanish" and then reappear on nesting territories a couple (or many) years later.  Cowboy we saw for the first time 10 years after fledging, Hurricane, Alley, Chaos, Terminator turned up 2-3 years later and all have been very successful.

Be more worried if we do have lots of sightings, that can mean that the bird isn't developing their flying/hunting as quickly as they should or as quickly as their siblings.

Thanks, Tracey.  God Speed lil' ones!

To answer your question about upper left corner in photo 343-1...it's a Swallow, a number of them would harass Fleet while he was on the ledge.

Poor Fleet . . .but I'm sure he'll put those Swallows in their place very shortly.

...caught a glimpse of what I believe to be a falcon wing stretching on the west ledge, near the southwest corner, of the boyd building about 15 min's ago - nothing since...

More photos have been added from the morning spent with Fleet...

http://www.pbase.com/photosbydennis/fleet_fledged

Wonderful photos Dennis - what a handsome young bird our boy Fleet is.

What is on the upper left side of photo # 00353-1?

My partner was downtown at 5am and he said someone was squawking up a storm on the Sterling Building (kittycorner from the Raddison)

Nobirdie is sight on the ledge this morning.
