Oh TPC, Ella says you can catch up on your ZZZZ's in the winter.  :D


And before anyone asks if I was really concerned, the answer is yes. Been tracking this freaking bird every couple of hours on my phone and I could never catch her feeding the damn chick. And at one point earlier this morening I causer a tiny glimpse of the chick and I seriously thought it was a goner - no movement at all.  Shades of Ella's sister Spencer who sucked at first feedings.  Chicks need to get fed in first 6 hours after hatch (that's my experience) and I didn't catch her feeding the chick - babies this young are hard to feed (no strength or coordination) and Ella has never been quick at it before - guess that has changed. Going to have to scour the recordings later today to see when the feedings I missed!

Bloody bird - not getting the sleep I lost back, that's for sure!!!

RCF thinks there might be two under there but I can't see it (yet) - would be nice though 😁

Feed is back up and holding so far.
We have an interesting mystery here. In the past when the cam has gone down it's because there has been an internet connection blip. So far that isn't the problem so we (actually our Rogers tech is) working our way back back up through the system to see what might be giving us grief.

So how to tell if there is a problem?

1) the screen will actually say the video feed isn't available
2) if you move your cursor over the video image you should see "Live" beside a red dot at the bottom of the image. If you still see a video but no "Live", then you are watching a YouTube created video clip.

It is never smooth sailing launching the FalconCam, sometimes it's more behind the scenes, sometimes it is front and centre in public (like this year).  This is why we try to launch in more than a few days in advance of the start of hatching.

Thanks for being patient - and know we are working on it! (And keeping an eye on the feed. If you see or think there might be a problem, I'm going to set up a separate area where folks can post.
