Lol..I should be in bed but wanted to make sure she was okay! I'm so glad she made it back up - that's a good sign, sometimes when they come down too low they can't get back up - the fact that she did means she is strong!! What a relief!
Go eat and get some sleep Bev..you must be exhausted and thank you, thank you..I can sleep soundly knowing she's okay! :D
bev.:
it is 8:20 pm Edmonton time . I stayed at the site until 7:45
Well, we can breathe for another day.
I got down to the site and I saw on adult near the building , and then I just listened . sure enough Cassie started to cack. I listened and thought well, she is either back where she was last night or higher up. I stood back and an adult came to the ledge of the roof where Cassie had been for 3 days . and voila ,up popped Cassie. ;D ;D :-*
I do not know if there was a feed as Cassie moved way to the left side and I saw some prey(maybe carcass) on the ledge. she made no attempt to get it . the adult flew off and the other one remained where it was
Cassie continued to cack
I really looked around and saw the one adult up on the heart building eating and then it flew off. shortly after the other adult went up there. and then flew off
All were accounted for.
Cassie cacked o ff and on for a bit and then sat looking around and then lay down on the ledge and slept while I twiddled my thumbs. :) :)
At about 7:00 pm Cassie started to cack . an adult made a fly by with prey and a short time later came to the ledge with a whole bird . Cassie cacking of course. the adult waited until Cassie grabbed it out of his mouth and then flew off . the bird fell onto the roof and Cassie just cacked and then sat. Made no attempt to get it. the adult was on dads antennae
A bout 20 minutes later Cassie started to cat walk and flap and I am telling her(JUmp down and get your food and eat) :) :)
After a few heart attacks ::) ::)she finally jumped down onto the roof. so I figured , time to go . As I was leaving I heard her cacking and the brat ;) ;)jumped back on the roof ledge at the left. I stayed for awhile longer and then she lay down on the ledge and then when I left she was sitting facing in. I do not know why she did not eat or ate just a bit. Wither too full or it wasn't salted right ;D ;D
the main thing is , she is safe for another day . And how about that . she made it ll the way back up. I am impressed.. Good girl CAssie.
I am out to eat now.
will try and post more pictures later.
I just wanted to hug her :-* :-*
bev.:
No, I am glad you said something.
I am on my way down now. sun is out for a bit but looks black but I will see what I can. I have my duck boots umbrella and just my binoculars.
I will try and see what is up.
carly:
Ack Bev, sorry didn't mean to worry you too - I am concerned cause she was down so low last night. That being said I'm probably worrying for nothing and she'll be just fine after some rest.
When Radisson came back the second time, she looked relaxed and was preening so all must be well or she'd be in a state of alarm. The first time she jsut looked puzzled but it could be that she could see Cassie and was trying to watch where she was going.
Anyway thanks for going out to check on her and my apologies for adding to your worries.. :-[ :-[
Great pics of our girl doing the catwalk...I'm with you, my heart would have been in my throat watching that from down below but thankfully we know she did just fine!
Oh..oh..mom is back again - 4:56 pm EST. Cassie must be close by, maybe she's on the lower ledge again. On the plsu side now she is looking up and across so that's encouraging!!
bev.:
and there they are. she was do funny to watch. Especially when she would put one foot talon) up. I wish we could have done a video . some are blurry as I tried to get as big as I could
