Quick update: Finally had 3 juvies on the ledge yesterday. Boomer and Mistic identified...not sure of the 3rd. This is the first confirmed sighting of Mistic in almost 2 weeks. Boomer has been a frequent visitor...The "kids" seem to still prefer the ledge next door to the nest ledge. We occasionally catch them (or a parent) flying to that ledge...or a parent leaving the nest ledge and going next door...
Scout and Orville have just started to return to the nest box together and the renewal of "vows" has begun...Scout and Orville did not migrate last fall, so it was really fun watching their frequent visits all winter...I hope they do that again this year.
That's it!!

Update~lots of fun on the ledge Saturday with Boomer and Justice..they really have very distinct personalities...for those of you who have time here are several videos:
The first 2 are very short...

This next video by Froona (which is long...but easy to fast forward) shows behavior between Scout and who we believe is Justice...Justice got quite aggressive with her mom while Boomer just calmly observed from the nest box...very interesting...

Now this is the surprise video...about 8:39 pm last night Boomer (I believe) left the ledge.....and returned about 15 minutes later. I have no clue why I decided to start recording at that particular time, but so glad I did...quality isn't great, and I had turned the sound off cuz I was on the phone..I could just kick myself that I had stopped recording about 1 minute before his return..I just didn't think he would be back...

Well, its Sunday Morning..Both have flown...I missed it...I just couldn't drag myself outta bed..I will miss these two...but I'm sure they are out having a blast right now..it looks like a gorgeous day for flying...I just hope we hear something about the other two soon!!!

Today's update...Well, Justice stayed put...who can argue with room service... ;D...but she and the rest of us got a huge surprise...Boomer made it back up to the nest ledge...now remember..The nest ledge is on the 41st floor of the Rhodes Tower. It appears they spent their day enjoying each other company.. Froona made several videos that are now posted on YouTube...here's one of them....

No info on Columbus and Mistic...so, I'm going with the old saying, "No news is good news".

Well, I finally worked out how to use this forum. Anyway, Columbus took off the ledge about 2 minutes ago, leaving Boomer behind. They just had finished eating, after having a a major dust-up over the food one of the parents brought to them, which Boomer proceeded to eat right in front of the camera. Now, Columbus has returned; perhaps despite all their sibling fighting, they miss each other.
