Indeed, as wonderful as the rooftop is for the chicks, and it is a wonderful playground for them (sure beats that small stinky nest box!), it sure sucks for those of us who want to watch them!  Impossible to keep the camera on them.  And in the zoomed out view, the chicks just blend in with the rooftop! 

Oh well, at least you will soon get to watch them fly RCF!

I see these kids are in Never Never Land again they sure seem to be Houdinis and  no matter where the camera is  they seem to sense it and move. ;D

Those chicks are very clever because they are at it again!   :(

It will soon be home time for the workers who are fixing the roof across the street and Brooklyn and Hurricane will get a break from defending their space.

But, why do the Brandon chicks get transmitters?  

All the peregrine are currently candidates for transmitters as part of a PhD research project.
You can read more on it here: Manitoba Conservation / PhD Research Project

After, reading all the forum past and present, I will fly out for a few days next year before banding and then off to Winnipeg to catch them too. I just want to see them fly and the video and pictures are so great.....But, why do the Brandon chicks get transmitters?

I love all your photos except for the one.  ::)  I think you should blank out the plate number because I don't want the cops chasing me down for parking on a one way street. :P  ;D

Sorry RCF...perhaps this will help hide your identity around town  :o ;D

Good one Dennis!!  :P ;D

 :o I'm impressed, RCF. I had no idea you were from Sask. and drove a Porsche. And you have a transmitter just like Mc Dermot, who, when I last looked at 10:50 was on the ledge at the Radisson.  ;) ;)

0615: Storms off and on all night,One chick in front of box and another behind the box (maybe two) but I only saw one go there. They must be getting pretty wet because it's raining hard. So far not much wind and no hail.

How can you tell that is Hunter RCF?  I can't see coloured leg bands at that distance!

I took video of them and took a capture from that, so when he moved off I could see the band with tape was dark. Process of elimination, Maya is bigger than the two boys and Sol's tape is white, so that's how I can tell. :)

Ohhh, OK, now that makes more sense.  I was looking at the capture and scratching my head thinking "How in the world does she see any colour!".  LOL

P.S.  Love the photo of you and your mini "Wowser".   ;D
