I can't say for certain, but the high that day was around 30C, and even late into the evening (when it would have been dark, so this is before then) it was still 25C.  so the a/c may have been needed....

According to the website, as of May 16 there are four chicks here! The cam was down earlier; these pics are from last night. I think all four chicks are visible. I love the way Alley is mantling her babies in the second last pic.

Do you know what the temperature was there when the photo was taken Alison?  The parents do that not so much as mantling (especially with a roof on their box) but usually as a sun-shade (not necessary here) or to catch & funnel air over the chicks - peregrine a/c if you like ...

It's GREAT to see Alley & 19/K with chicks....  I can't believe it.  Someone tell the news to Princess and Trey that they are Grandparents, again, but the excitement never wears off  :P

The box the birds are using this year (and have used in previous years) is being taken down at the end of this season so the Nebraska folks have installed a new nestbox for Alley & 19/K to get used to.  They didn't choose the new one this year, but they won't have an option next year.  I haven't seen any images or description of the new box, but it might be that it has easier access for both people and the webcam ...

'Fraid I haven't heard yet where the new nestbox is located, but I'm sure I will get a reply to my email eventually, the Lincoln folks are usually pretty good about getting back to me but sometimes it takes a while.  At this time of the year, I can understand that they are swamped with emails & work.

Incubation is continuing; it's difficult to see what is happening in this nest. I wonder where the new nest box which has been provided is located.

I hope this pair will have a very successful year.

Yeah given they had a year like Trey and Princess last year let's hope for a good year for them this season.
