Ahh, that's most likely rain droplets that got into the lens...thanks.

So I guess no news is good news about the return of falcons..

Yes Cam 2 has been weird since this morning...maybe the sun beaming in??  Or dirt on the cam?  It poured quite a bit yesterday for awhile so I wonder if something got onto the lense.  Or maybe those crafty ravens are onto us and they purposely smudged the lense so we can't peek at them  ;)

I think you're right about the shadow, probaby from the branches..now that the sun is moving I can see I was seeing things  ::)

I know this is a 'tech' question but don't want to start a new thread way over on the 'Forum' subject  ;D - Anybody else notice that we can't get into this thread without signing on?  ??? Not that there's anything wrong with that  :P - just wondering....

I will tel you all the places.

Look on the Campus tower roof on the antennae, that is where the male likes to hang out.
the female from last year, Radisson, liked those ledges that I showed often in pictures.

If you check your messages often I will let you know when I go down and I will show you the places to look. 

Of course , if there is anew male or female that could change.

When I saw the ravens they went behind the clinical science building at the hospital and then I spotted them at the Suite hotel and Newton aprtments. Down form Tim Hortons

I was down at the nest site today about 4:00 p.m., and there was no sign of the ravens or the falcons.  I went to the top of the parkade, hoping for a glimpse of one or the other, but no luck.  The female raven is on the nest now, as I write, but I don't know where they went while I was there.  Of course, I don't know where to look for falcons or ravens, either, in the area.  Bev is the expert on this.
