Now Froona, it is too late to be thinking of any funny stuff.  You just relax, settle in for a quiet evening and a good sleep.  Tomorrow could be your big day!

Kind of looks like there was a party of sorts on that little roof! :-\  Nice Froona had company for awhile though! ;D

Guess the lure of food finally enticed little red away from our girl.  I'm off to bed but hopefully we'll have a report from Eli or Lorac or backwards Bob  ;) for me to read in the morning.

I love the running commentary that people provide for these kids.  It's very imaginative LOL

Hey check this out!!  I think this is Bev's biologist Gord from this nest site!  Apparently he's not only 'The Peregrine Man' but he won awards from BBC for his photography!!

I still think she's feeling too hot to be active.
Oh look, she is getting a lecture from bro!  Maybe Froona can get him to chill out by promising to go later when it's cool and shady.

Both laying down now.  Froona looks almost depressed and little bro is trying to cheer her up  :-*

I was hoping you wouldn't notice ...  i'm officially Chatty Carly now  :-[ 

Chatty Carly dances on her balcony in the moonlight  ;D

You didn't think we would let that go by without acknowledging it did you??   :-* Not a chance.

Yeah, I'd be a little concerned about my nose next to a beak that size too.   :o

And I don't even wanna know what falcon breath smells like  :-X

Lol..actually falcons smell nice..surprisingly.  When we had Mackenzie wrapped up in my jacket..after we put him in the carrier the guys said I should wash my jacket just in case of any bugs or anything but it was totally clean and it smelt like almost a baby powderish kind of scent.  Of course I didn't stick my nose up to his little beak so you could be right about the breath thing...I was more worried he'd bite my nose  :P
