The chicks are alert more now-a-days, they remind me of little Cassie from last year looking out of the box.  One of them yells alot too, must be the girl..lol..two days in a row now I see her beak open wide and she's looking up like
she's yelling for food or maybe she's saying 'boys, blech, boys  ;D
LOL Carly.... :D

Checking in on Radisson and gang.  Mom is feeding them all now and looks like the boys have edged Froona out for a change..hehe!  I can't believe how big and fluffy they're getting  ;)

Hee hee, that 5th pic looks like a little one got sent to the corner and is looking back saying, "I'm sorry, I won't do it again."  :(

Awesome bev. once again, I thank you.  I try to have this site up beside the Radisson chicks but I sometimes miss the good stuff.  They are getting so big and in no time flat they will be entertaining us immensely like the Wpg. chicks.
I love the third pic where the squonk is going on!

Keep sending the great shots!  I love 'em.

Awesome slideshow Bev, that's obviously a quality cam you got - the photos were so crisp and clear!  Love seeing the parents too, really all we see is their behinds when they come in and out of the box these days so it's great to see them in the air!

I'm sure Froona would be honored to know you named a chick after her  :)

I  really have no favorites. they were all so precious.
but because of the great crusader Froona was for the falcons and such a  wealth of information , I had to name the female for her. I am glad there was only one female because then i would have had to choose. making a decision  is not one of my strengths.

Eagle 63
My camera that my husband bought for me  is a Nikon D5000. Yes it is digital and I have a 18-200 zoom attachment

Now I need lots of lessons. So far I just point and shoot and pray ;D ;D

We are learning videos but I was too caught up in things today to take any.

Thanks for sharing your slideshow, Bev.  Awesome shots of Damon, he's quite the looker.   8)  Love the shot "Take your picture and leave"!   ;D  I've watched it 5x already.   ;D ;D

Bev, what kind of camera did you and your hubby buy? It is a digital camera no doubt.
