I can hear one kid calling, would he/she be above the nest since the two at the nest keep looking up?

Congrats to Jubilee and fingers crossed all goes well with her!  I am so happy to hear/see that the other boys have come back to visit the nestbox.  Hope they keep doing that! 

Fleet and Mac are being rather vocal right now.  Cute to watch their little heads follow whoever is in the sky above.  Hard on the ears (I have a headset on at work :P).

I wonder when Mac is going to try again.  He sure must have gotten pretty shook up from his first experience.  Poor guy... He should be good and strong by the time he tries again though!
I hope all goes well with Jubilee to, but kinda sad that I missed her take off to try her wings today. I am glad she gave her wings a try today to see what would happen on her first fledge. I hope that you guys will be able to find Jubilee and keep us in touch when you find her.

1155h CDT

One adult is alarm calling but its more "back off" than "death to invaders" and although I think it is from the communications tower overhead I can't be sure because of the wind today, sound is moving somewhat.  If it is from the comm tower - it will be Princess and it may be that the hotel staff are checking the chillers et al.

Will see what I can find out ...

Why are the parents alarm calling? Can anyone on the ground see why?  ???

All quiet now RCF - sorry can't be of any help ...

Fleet is on the southwest corner of the nestbox and he was calling a minute ago ...

I was just out, one bird only on the nestbox, no parents to be seen.

McDermot and Fleet are on the front edge now.

Couldn't find Jubilee and Hart when I hijacked the sky-cam.  Not surprising, its hard to find them on all the rooftops and the wind (which is stronger than forecasted) is shaking the cam some, so details at a distance are difficult so my range is more limited ...

1040h CDT

Going to hijack the skycam and have a look around

Do we get a tour?  :)
 

For a bit at least ... when it starts becoming vertigo inducing I'll switch y'all back to a static cam ...

Thank you  :)

Just as an FYI

0545h CDT - as bccs reported, all four chicks were at the nestsite - Fleet (y) on the ledge with a snack (boy likes to eat!) and McDermot (g/s), Hart (w) and Jubilee (r) on the nestbox in deep conversation

0747h CDT - Jubilee fledged, sort of sideways from the front of the nestbox - not as smooth as her brothers but, well, it is her first flight.

0819h CDT - Hart (white) followed also took off from the edge of the nestbox, and in the general direction Jubilee took.

1045h CDT - McDermot was napping inside the box, but now awake and perched on the front box-edge with Fleet.
