:) :-* Congratulations, RCF, I just noticed you have reached 2500 posts. If I can speak for all, what would we do without your photos and videos. :-*

Checking out the closeup of the three all in one corner, and I can't help but notice that all three are sporting mohawks.
TPC mentioned that Radisson's chick at the UofA had a real mohawk, not just a few tufts on the top of his head.
I think that these Brandon chicks also have a fairly well defined mohawk. It may be the "Year of the Mohawk". What do you think?

Yes hope everything goes well today.

If we can, we will. Not sure of the timing will depend on the birds and we will be hijacking the camera to make the necessary assessments, so if you are getting a strange view or watching a tour, you'll know why.

Funny you should mention this as I've been wondering when they were going to get their antennas! Isn't it really difficult to catch them at this stage? I can just picture you running around after them on that roof. LOL. ;D

No running, no even fast walking. If the chicks are too "old" by which I mean too close to fledging and every chick and every nest is different, then retrieving them is a quiet, careful activity (think making friends with a porcupine with wings). And if they are too close to fledging, even quite and careful will not be enough and we don't want the little porcupines to fly just yet. ;)
