I'm Lorac's husband, Bob. (I spelled my name backwards, too, but I don't see any difference.) 

Lol  ;D

Great to have you both here and a big thanks for looking out for Radissons's family for us!! 
Oh no :o :o, what am I going to call Dennis now?? :'(
Welcome aboard Lorac and Bob. Thanks for joining in. ;D

Yesterday I could see tufts of "baby fluff" on Froona's  head and back and today she looks as sleek as an adult!
All grown up!
Sure do like your name spelled backwards "BOB"!  Welcome to both you and Lorac.

Watching Froona and the way the light shines on her head it looks like she either has a helmut on or sunglasses pushed up on her forehead!  Cute!  She is looking good and probably ready now to fly with her family!

I'm Lorac's husband, Bob. (I spelled my name backwards, too, but I don't see any difference.) This is our first year spending more than a few minutes at a time watching the chicks at the CSB. Thanks to joining the fledgewatch, we've been able to learn a lot about the trials and tribulations the falcon chicks go through as they learn to fly. Until Mr. Bev told us about this site a couple of days ago, we were limited to watching the falconcams. Thanks for being here and making all this additional information available.

I can't wait.  We're going to over there for the 5:00 - 9:00 shift this evening.  I love it!

Thanks so much for these Carly.  It must be totally exhausting and I understand that the temperature is extremely hot out there.  I sure hope they don't get sick from it.

It is great to get any updates that we can.   :-*

Just got a call from Mr & Mrs Bev!  Things are going well today down there so far.  Mr Yellow is flying like an ace!  He's perched right below dad now on the nest building.  Mr Red did take a flight today and he's now on the Hart Building so all is well, he's building up his confidence. 

They are keeping an eye on Froona and expect her to go either today or tomorrow!  Sadly no word on Mr White at all, I had to ask  :-\

Mr Bev has to go out of town tomorrow so there won't be any updates as Bev will be down at the site and she's quite exhausted.
