Boy AND a girl! Great to hear. Loving the view. It appears the chicks are now being fed. They are facing the inside and the parent is in the box. I look forward to their walks on the promenade. Thanks Eye Spy for the camera switch. I also look forward to your photos Dennis from the banding.  ;D

I'm enjoying the outside view including Winnipeg at night
Boy and Girl are sprawled out asleep with Mom/Dad on watch. 
It looks a bit breezy, but otherwise a lovely Prairie evening.

Banding went very smoothly - was a bit worried we wouldn't be able to get the chicks, they do like the balcony do these two!  Chicks were on the balcony when we arrived, then Ella came in with some food and we needed to wait until the snack was over. Then one chick was outside and the other chick was half-in and half-out.  So we came out on the roof and let Pip find us, then Ella in the hope that their parents' protests would push the kids inside and it worked - or rather worked just enough for us to scoop up the outermost chick before it knew what was going on.  All was pretty standard after that :)  We have put red tape on the male chick's band so he should be easy to spot as they continue to grow.

As for the camera, yes, we are working to switch over today - or rather tonight. With the new setup for Shaw, I can't do the switch but Eye-Spy can.  Unfortunately he couldn't join us for the banding (day job and all that) to make the switch over while we were there.  Instead he's going to work on it this evening.

Great! - Should be getting the news soon then. - I thought they were going to change the cam view while they were there, but maybe they do it another way. - Chicks are outside a lot these days.  8)
