This is probably a silly question, but would there be a chance of a parent overheating while being a mumbrella?

I noticed this as well this morning and wondered if it was an unusual occurance. I had never seen both adults do this at the same time, either. I heard on the news not long ago that men doing roofing work today had to take frequent "ground" breaks because it was well over 40 degrees up there on the roofs. So it's no wonder these 2 adults tried to protect their young from the scorching heat up there on their "roof". Such great parents, Princess & Ivy are! :)

Looks like one chick on the drain cover.  You can only see part of the bird, but I think it was wingersizing up there.

It is the sunlight hitting the west side of the Kensington Building which is all tinted glass, makes a very good design on the road ...
