Ok, all of you can rest easy, all 4 chickies are back home on the ledge or in the nestbox ;D ;D ;D.    Saw them with my very own eyes.

Beautiful day here, great for watching the birds, a lovely blue sky that makes it easy to see the birds flying.

When I got downtown, two were on the ledge, one on the nestbox ledge, and one on the south ledge. So south ledge guy made his way over to the north ledge by a series of flights. He first took off and landed on the north side of the hotel on the top floor. He stayed there for a bit, took off again and then landed on the roof ledge above the south ledge. His third try was sucessful, he made a launch off the roof, came west almost over my head, turned and made a pretty good landing on the north ledge. One girl was wingercizing, the other was watching and our other boy was on the ledge. At one point one of the grils jumped onto the ledge with the boys, but she didn't stay there long and went back into the box.

A great start to a beautiful day.   ;D ;D

Breakfast seems to be over .......only see one on the nestbox edge right now........is this the day for the girls to try their flight abilities ???  Weather seems great right now, very little wind to be felt here is Charleswood( downtown may be different) perfect conditions to try the first flight! ;D  Now the count is back to two so one must have hopped over the nest box edge to the ledge below the box.  Busy kids ::)

Goodmorning everyone!  I just seen the male left he went up on the Radisson roof and then one of the sister's followed him but I am not sure if she went up or went down?  It's to hard to see I will be sitting on pins and needles till we get your report bccs.

Thanks bccs. Anxiously await your update on the Royals.  8)  You should get there by breakfast time.

Just got in - drove through the storm earlier and worried about the boys out in the madness.  Checked posts from my friend's computer and read bccs's post, saying that the boys would hunker down and be safe.  Saw all the pictures and heard how the girls were enjoying themselves - thanks everyone for the great updates and pics!   I can only see one of the kids on the edge now, but am so happy to hear that one of the boys made it back to the nest.

Drove downtown with my friends, but we were going to the Fairmont, which is on the wrong side of the Radisson.  Still, I searched the roofs of all the buildings around the Radisson as well as the sky, but saw no birdies  :'( :'(

Clear sky tonight and I think the forecast for the next few days will be very favourable for fledging... ;D ;D  Will Aura be taking the plunge tomorrow?

There's sure been lots of drama so far - wonder what we're in for next?!?
