Radisson - 2014 / Smiley & Princess

[The Peregrine Chick]

Went back into the recorder and our no-tape chick has been playing on this ledge all day it seems.  She hopped down there just after 0800h this morning and has been up/down the ledge lots of times and back up and down from the box edge as well.  And she finds the camera interesting - not sure if she's talking to it or wanting to eat it ...

Interestingly, I just checked the CBC from both my laptop and my desktop - both are the same age and run the same software and OS. The interesting part is that my desktop which is hardwired to the internet was choppy while my laptop using wireless wasn't - both at the same time.  Both using the same version of Firefox.  Not sure I can offer anything that might be helpful ....

Me too - Choppy picture for the past week or so.

It's been fine at home, so I figure it either the time of day (more traffic) or the browser I'm using at work.  Should be working instead of gazing at the birds, but I do like to have the option

I will try another browser if I get the chance and will report back.

I've been having the same issue as Susha for over a week now. I know its not my internet speed as I can download
as fast as 4MB/s almost all hours of the day and night. I just assumed it was something with CBC. I even have really
big problems just loading the page without running the cam. Not sure what to make of it, but yes, its a little annoying.

Just my 2 cents!

Try a different browser, sometimes that works for me.

I'm having problems with the cam freezing for a few seconds...starting and freezing again and it's very annoying
Seems to happen a lot this time of day...anybody else having the same problems?

It may just be the amount of traffic Susha - know that doesn't help much.

I checked the cameras and they aren't freezing so it is an internet connection somewhere.  It could be from the hotel to CBC or from CBC to your computer.  I checked my CBC site on my laptop, so running wireless and I'm not having any problems, so perhaps it is that in your particular (geographic) area the connection is a bit slower at this time of the day?   Just speculation on my part of course!

Yes, they certainly do sound like bosom buddies!

[The Peregrine Chick]

The girls have been particularly cute over the last couple of hours.  They have gotten to the point where they like to nip at each other - lots of tail and beak nipping.  And if one is napping and the other isn't ready to nap yet, the napper gets leaped on.  When these two decide to fledge, pretty sure they will go together.

[Kinderchick]

At the moment, both girls are picking away at "leftovers" inside the nest box, in the shade.

[ballywing]

Was at MTS Centre just before noon - One girlie sitting on the ledge - 2 Parents flying around yelling - I thought for sure that other girlie had fledged~! Glad she hasn't yet! 

[Kinderchick]

This girl sure is a beauty, perched there on the corner of the nest box! Hard to believe she was a wee fluffy white ball just a few weeks ago.

[The Peregrine Chick]

Nope, both the girls are still in the box - well, one on the edge, the other at the back of the box (inside) napping.  Seems like they too might need a bit more baking despite being 40 days old.  Both being females, they may take their time before they go - or the least ready may set the timing if her sister doesn't want to start without her.  We'll have to see ...

[ballywing]

Hm, still no sign of the other girlie. She hasn't gone 'Flyabout' has she??
