How far down is it from the nestbox to the lower roof top? And is that gravel from the nestbox that has spilled out onto the roof top? :-\

It looks like it is six to eight inches from the box to the floor, not very far. All three chicks jumped down onto the floor and never walked down the ramp to get to the floor. :)

They are getting a breeze on the floor, but in the box they weren't. :)

Moved the cam - the chicks are just beside the nestbox sprawled out on the roof of the building - you can see the ramp on the right ....

4:55pm and we have an empty nest!  Took RG quite awhile to decide to follow her brothers, but I turned my back and she was gone!

And just after I loaded up Google Chrome so I could watch without it freezing...  :-\

I thought Red girl was going to leave the box and join her brother but she just settled on the first rung of the ramp for about a minute and a half and then went back up and into the box.  :)

Chicks got fed and it looked like the leftovers were dropped for the nest escapee!  ;D - maybe if TPC has the power to do so, she can lower the cam view a bit so we can see Green Boy better.... 8)

 :)Maybe this one should be called Canada? Just a thought about names.
Ok, I think they all went to the Canada parade without us. Smart little ones in this nest. Follow the leader is the game today.

Hey somebirdie jumped out of the nest!  :o- I assume the ramp is to help him/her get back in - looks a bit steep though  :-\

I started a July thread and posted the same thing, TPC will probably move all these over to that thread when she has time.  ;)

One the chicks is out of the box on the roof floor. I think it's green boy and he jumped or sort of jumped.  ;D

Rose and I were early and the three chicks were fed just before everyone else showed up for the banding.  Brooklyn fed them and Hurricane perched under the decorative ledge on the north side.

As usual, great pictures RCF!!

I agree!  RCF, your pictures always seem to tell a story :)

Thanks so much for sharing these with us!  I really enjoy them. :-*
