1720h: Having a peep at the clouds were we TPC? Sun is now shining, we did have a little rain earlier but nothing much to speak of still had to water my tomato plants, it's really been quite a nice day. :)

Wanted to tweak the cam angle on the window cam and often folks get dizzy when I zoom in and out, so it seemed kinder to switch the view while I "tweaked".  And besides, its nice to see the world more like the peregrines do from time to time.  :)

Just saw the end of a feeding. The three chicks look like drunken sailors, barely able to stand their crops are so full! :)

They make the cutest tripod, each leaning on the others.

& Hurricane has been with the chicks pretty much all morning ... looks like a nice day so far in the nestbox  .... also, those chicks sure look neon white like their Dad, too bad they'll lose it soon enough, we'll have to wait a couple of years to see if any of them are as white when they are as adults ...

Day - Partly cloudy in the morning, then overcast. High of 25C. Winds from the ESE at 5 to 20 km/h.
Night - Overcast with a chance of rain. Fog overnight. Low of 12C. Breezy. Winds from the ESE at 10 to 20 km/h. Chance of rain 50%.

With her eyesight, I'd be thinking she might be checking for any birds, airplanes, UFO's or any other perceived threats!

Hurricane on the mts tower after Brooklyn dropped lunch over the side of the Scotia building.  She was looking up, maybe hoping something would fly by.  ;D

Guess the kids either missed lunch or had it late . We were down at the McKenzie Building at 1230 and Brooklyn was bringing lunch. He took it to the louvers of the Scotia towers to prepare it and dropped it over the side, he went to retrieve it but some people came out of the building just as he was coming down so he just flew off. Hurricane came off the nest box, flew around and complained from the top mast of the MTS tower. When last seen Brooklyn was off to catch more lunch. ;D

About 15 minutes ago Hurricane came in with food, gave the chicks one or two bites, seemed concerned with something outside and quickly left with the food. When she came back about 4 or 5 minutes later she never brought the food back. I thought the way she acted was a little strange. she doesn't seem concerned about anything now.  ???
