Moonstar:
I can't believe how big the chicks are today. It is like they grew over night. So many dark feathers and just walking around and spreading their wings.

Strong winds gusting to 80 km/h producing local damage.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
An unseasonably intense storm system centered northeast of the Dauphin area is producing strong westerly to southwest winds over southwest Manitoba and the Red River valley today. Winds gusting to 70 or 80 km/h are being reported with a peak gust to 96 km/h at Brandon Airport earlier this morning. These winds together with full tree foliage and saturated ground are leading to several reports of tree branches down along with local power outages. The winds are expected to stay strong into this evening before they start easing off overnight as the storm system weakens somewhat. Until then residents in the advisory area should be aware of the potential for further local tree damage and power outages today due to these strong winds.
The public is advised to monitor future forecasts and warnings as warnings may be required or extended.
Please monitor the latest forecasts and warnings from Environment Canada at www.weatheroffice.gc.ca
The Peregrine Chick:
1842h - raining here in Winnipeg (yet again) - 22mm in the last 24 hours.
All our chicks are soaking wet but they are all old enough to get wet and still be okay, particularly since they all have siblings to "pile" with and parents who will join them when it gets colder/wetter. At the moment, just the chicks together in a pile in the nestbox at the Radisson.
Liz:
I think I guessed two girls :) Glad they're healthy. Lots of fluff in the camera lens right now, they're glued inside -- it's pouring again in downtown Wpg.. West nest is best! :D
Moonstar:
Maybe they want him there with food and not just company.
