Elaine L:
All three chicks are up on the ledge.  This is pretty scary, more for me than them, I think, because a sudden wind could come along and take one of them off.  They are so vulnerable at this age, and so close to the edge!

Elaine L:
Just an additional note: in the CBC News story, they show a photo of the good-natured guy who scaled the building and took on the wrath of Madame and lived to tell the story; but boy, does he ever have alot of holes in his shirt!
