RCF:
Earlier today one of the chicks was picking at a bird head, it had a long beak and before they ate it I believe it had black legs.   ;D

RCF:
Look at the little wing feathers growing on this one.....I think it's the boy.  ;D

Ditto, Jazz. :)

What a perfectly logical explanation! ;) I never saw or read the old Blog but I have been a member of this forum since it's beginning and I never knew the reason for the forecasts. I just supposed that like me and wanted a forecast for a different part of the country or world you just Googled what you wanted. That's really good of you to think of the large percentage of forum members and guests that don't live here and can't look out the window and see what's going on. Thanks again for the explanation, so now I know. :)

Boy I sure hope not and everyone in Brandon sure hopes not, nobody in Brandon wants to go through last night again! I'm sure any one from this area has checked the forecast many times a day over the last two weeks and I'm sure anyone with a computer, radio and TV etc. can check and so I'm just wondering why this year you have started to post forecasts daily on these threads when posted forecasts was a rare occurrence in past years?
