Radisson - 2013 / Ivy & Princess
bccs:
Or maybe there's an issue with the mounting of the camera. I've never seen this in past years.
Maybe a screw loose??

Now we see Princess in action as a windbreak, with the chicks cralleded between the drain and wall, she is mostly broadside to the wind in front of them, and she certainly is getting her feathers ruffled.

Must be a wind that is magnified by the tall buildings around the Radisson Bcbird.
I'm five blocks south and just a slight breeze here.

A post-snack chick pile now taking place.

I could be wrong Jo, but having seen this ledge from many angles here's my estimate.
Ledge attached to the building - 8 or 9 feet.
North and south ledges, about 5 feet each.

Quick dinner/snack in the rain.
The Chicklets look hungry.
