Still three eggs in Brandon ... and two damp parents ... probably going to see alot of damp parents both in Brandon and Winnipeg if the weather reports for the weekend are correct .

The timer/play/pause bar does get a bit in the way of the bottom part of the box, is that what you mean rcf?

Sort of 

I'll zoom out a bit ...

Thank you

I don't know if it is my computer, but I am only seeing part of the bird in the box.

Aha!! - Lots of good reasons, none of which entered my mind of course,  - I was just thinking about weather related stuff!

Seems pretty breezy in that nest  - TPC I wonder why the 'roof' of that nest wasn't extended over the whole box area, it just seems to cover a corner of it?
 

The roof is close to double the size of the old roof and the angled corner is to allow the adults to sit facing in or out without having the roof right over their head and to enable the chicks to jump from the box onto the rooftop around fledging time - unlike the Radisson with its long ledge for the chicks to run up and down, this nestbox has edges, rooftop and the perch for the chicks come fledging time.  Four growing chicks all flapping their wings take up alot of room.

It's nice to be able to see Brooklyn and Hurricane coming and going into the nest box.

Have changed the view at the Brandon box a bit so folks can watch the adults as they arrive but yet still see the eggs.  We'll see what views are best to catch all the action as we go through the day.

Quote from: MayShowers on Today at 05:52:22 AM I took a quick peek this morning, and thought I saw 3 eggs, but it is still pretty dark.

Yes, I am pretty sure she laid the third egg around 9:40pm last night. It was also too dark to see at that time............but definitely three.  

From the recording, looks like RCF is correct on the time of egg 3
Good catch!
