Princess leaves to get lunch, Ivy comes to babysit while mom prepares the food.  And of course Princess blocks the feed. ;D

I shortened the video.   http://youtu.be/YD_VAYKXv8k

Princess was a better door than window again for the snack - but I'm just so glad we have 2 healthy chicks, and it's a NICE day - it doesn't matter - we'll get to see lots of feedings I'm sure!  ;D ;D

This morning's chronology ....

  • 0445h - light comes up, Princess on chicks/egg
  • 0548h - meal 1 - when Princess "clears the table", Ivy gets to sit on kids
  • 0603h - Ivy napping, Princess pushes him off kids (he had literally 5 minutes)
  • 0630h - meal 2 - bit for kids, bit for Princess, Ivy doesn't get chance on kids
  • 0738h - meal 3 - one kid eating, other takes a couple of morsels then davenports, Princess doesn't even give Ivy the chance to get near the kids this time around
  • 0915h - Princess still on chicks - warm on the ledge so chicks are visible


And for today ... hallelujah no Princess flipping!

Day - Clear. High of 16C. Winds less than 5 km/h.
Night - Clear. Low of 4C. Winds less than 5 km/h.

Even though it will likely change, the long range forecast right now says zero chance of precipitation through to next Saturday.  Wouldn't that be wonderful?!

At last!  Princess can relax comfortably on her two chicks and hoover away to her heart's content ;D

6:30am - quick snack . . I missed the drop off. Parent's back was to the camera so not a great view. I could see 2 chicks and one egg that were quickly tucked back under parent.

Sunny day in Winnipeg, cool but no wind.

I'm very thankful for this blog. I have to be out of town today and tomorrow but I can check the forum on my iPhone and am always happy to read that things are okay at the nest site. Thanks for the updates on feedings especially. That tells me alot. Keeping my fingers crossed for the weather next week!  Keep the posts coming my fellow bloggers :)
