Were volunteers asked for?
Funny that neither of these happened.
Lots of us that would have been happy to be there.
Too bad, as some of the drama could have been prevented by seasoned
watchers who know, through experience, what to do, how and when to react.

The Project has not arranged for formal volunteer fledge watch patrols (continuous surveillance from dawn to dusk for 7-10 days) since the early 1990s. The webcam came online in 2006 and in 2009 an informal, more social fledgewatching began at the Radisson with folks arranging when they would meet up with others and we added a fledgewatch board to the Forum so folks could make plans without having to share them publicly on the web. Since 2011, this social fledgewatching has been more sporadic and spontaneous but we have kept the fledgewatch board and some members have continued to stay active when their schedules allow and the weather cooperates.
If folks are looking for others to meet downtown to watch/look for the birds, let me know and I'll add you to the fledgewatch board. If you are just wanting to keep up on sightings, you don't need to join the fledgewatch board, observations will be posted on the Radisson board.
Jazzerkins:
Thanks, Dennis. That's what happens when the cam keeps freezing up. There one minute, "gone" the next.
GCG:
Will probably wait until dusk or tomorrow @ dawn.

Jazzerkins:
I think the third one might have just fledged as well.
