McKenzie Seeds - 2013 / Brooklyn & Hurricane
RCF:
If you noticed the camera view had changed, it is because the Brandon chicks are getting fitted with transmitters, Tracy told me this info at the banding. These chicks are sitting ducks, not like last year where they had a sporting chance. In the current view you can see the parents flying past. I am sure they are not happy!
The Peregrine Chick:
Cam is focused and repositioned.
Two chicks in view right now - 1 on the riser of the nestbox, 1 on the ramp ..
Weather for today ...
Day - Overcast with thunderstorms. High of 29C. Breezy. Winds from the West at 10 to 20 km/h. Chance of rain 50%.
Night - Mostly cloudy in the evening, then clear. Low of 14C. Winds from the NW at 10 to 15 km/h shifting to the NE after midnight.
The Peregrine Chick:
Cam is set back on the nestbox since that is the area the chicks prefer overnight and early in the morning. I will make sure it is focus tomorrow am!
The Peregrine Chick:
1900h
Chicks have decided to go "camping" - they are napping in the plants along the south wall of the roof, Lake McKenzie is just to the left of the image off camera. The roof looks like it might be a bit damp still (which is why the plants are so healthy) and therefore cooler - looking at the nearest weather station in the Brandon area, it is 28C but feels like 31C so a cool damp spot to lie on must be a pleasure!
The Peregrine Chick:
1245h
All three chicks are in the nestbox away from the worst of the sun. Not many prey remains in there so even though hot today, not stinky & hot.
Light is very bright so I've opted to zoom in for a bit instead of just watching glare from the roof. Have to be away from computer for a wee bit but will be back and will change view if necessary ... should be shadier then and the chicks should be outside.
Winds are from the south and shaking the cam some ... first time both our cams have been affected by wind at the same time!
