It looks like there's someone at the bottom left of the screen.

 I see some head movement just on the edge of the white inner ledge. Never saw
 the parents down there b4.

 Here is a video taken from outside the box. Notice the diff. vocalizations.

We may have to settle for views of The Three Amigoes Part Deux! -- night time only, all three lined up. 

I sure hope they show up tonight

It drives me nuts that I can hear them but can't see them...but hey, hearing them is better than not 

[JL]

I don't see them but I can definitely hear them.  It looks like a nice day for flying lessons there.  Too bad we can't see them swooping around. 

[Holly-Birdeze]

  jumpers    I don't see anyone at all...
anyhooo...I wish them the best

 I guess I was, thankfully, wrong about the last flyer. Maybe he was sulking about being left all alone for the first time.

 Last year the chicks returned to the nest at night  for a while.

 When trying to spot them you sometimes catch them swooping by in the
 upper left. Probably an adult with food and making the chicks work for it.
 
 They also changed the cam so we can look back into the nest.

just heard a scronk or two over the sound of the generating station.  They can't be too far away!

When I was checking at 5 this morning all three were there.  One out on the "roost" and two sitting right on the edge of the ledge.  Left for a minute and then there were two. Saw the second one leave but the third one didn't look too awake.  Checked back in about 10 min and he was busy flapping his wings and once again I was away for a bit and when I came back he also ws gone.

[JL]

I haven't heard or seen them at all this morning.

[Moonstar]

Last year all three used to come back at night.
This morning there was one there.  Parent broght in food, he grabbed it and ran into the corner with it.  Lots of noise from both the chick and the parent at that time.  
Not sure about last night.
Hopefully they do come this year.

[kittenface]

Anyone hear any yelling or screaming from any of them?

[JL]

I miss them already.  I hope they come back for a visit.  Did all 3 come back to the nestbox last night? 

[Baffled]

I tuned in today and the nest is empty. We have 3 fledges!
I'm sad to see them go, as I love watching them hatch and grow, but still very happy for the chicks.
I wish them well on their new adventures!
