I will write a report in a bit as I have to work on my yard as the weather is about to change :( :(
Just wanted to let you know we saw at least 3 at a time yesterday and we think it was a juvenile in the nestbox around 4:45 Alberta time. Mom was in the box at about 6:00 Alberta time.
Things were a little soelmn an we had a feeling they were saying goodbye but we will be there tongiht and hopeful they will be there as I have the big camera for tonight.
when we got there , lots of savoring and flying over nest box area and lots of echupping going on so... and then they went out towards the river. report coming :)

Bev, thank you once again for all your wonderful reports and the great pics of Cassie, Hope and the parents. I love the photos of Cassie and Hope flying - they are so beautiful.
You deserve so much credit for your dedication to Cassie and Hope, and the whole family, not to mention all the time and effort you have put into watching over them. Then there is all the time and work involved in writing the reports, taking the photos, and sharing the results with all of us. It is very much appreciated. I hope Cassie and Hope will not migrate for a little while yet - I'm really going to miss them when they do go.

I totally agree that the choice of name should be up to you, Bev. The name books I have say that most sources give the meaning of Damon as "spirit", but that another possibility is "to tame", both from Greek roots. Edmund means "wealthy protector". I am sure that whatever name you choose will fit the little male.

Thanks for the great reports Bev :) The more the better as far as I am concerned. 8) We have been so fortunate that the girls and parents have stayed around this long, and that we have had you to document their adventures.
As far as Dad's name is concerned, sorry if I got a little carried away. ::) It was just fun to try and come up with some suggestions. You have more important things to think about at the moment. Perhaps you can think about this once the family has started on their southern adventure. The consensus certainly is that you should be the one to decide, however if you are looking for more suggestions, I am sure that all of the creative members here would have fun with that too. ;D
