What a day you two have had, msd and bccs! How fortunate for Isis that someone was right there to rescue her!

Hi there, Msd, now it is your turn to slow down, take a deep breath and type slower. Luv and thanks to you and bccs for the rescue of Isis. GCG :-*

Really, she was so sweet when I scooped her up!  I can't imagine what bird you are talking about
What an adventure.  You all did so well.  Wish I'd been there to see it all.
Congratulations and lots of them!

Some on just flew overhead and landed on the rogers building. I was sure it was a parent, but I don't have binoculars so not completly sure.

Glad she's okay, even if she has that Jeckle and Hyde mentality.  ;D

1708 hrs (local) - looks like Aura on the nestledge about 2/3rds of the way toward the ledgecam.  She eating or playing with an old meal on the ledge.  Can't see either one of the boys from any of my three angles at the moment.

Actually, given when/where you picked her up, I daresay she was still figuring out what had happened.  Didn't take her long to start hissing, corner of Smith and Portage as I turned onto Portage in fact.  Must have been all that peeing, oops, sorry, peeking, you two were doing.  Stressing the poor wee thing so that she snapped back to her normal state just in time for Lisa and I to take over!!  ;)


Bahahahahahahaha so ya caught the pee(k)ing thing did ya??
Nope, still think it was msd's gentle arms and my dulcet voice that calmed her down ;D

Pretty sure if either of you were to come near her now you would think it was another bird.   :o  ... think maybe she is channelling her great-grandfather T-Rex .... he was not what one might call laid back and/or forgiving.

Oh, btw TPC, both msd and I are available tomorrow afternoon to do the transfer of Isis.
Seems she likes us and would go calmly if we were there.   ;D ;D ;D

YES ( HAND PUMP HERE ) YES

Oh this is such great news, thanks Tracy and thanks Lisa. :-* :-* :-*

Now, gotta tell you TPC, she was a perfect lady with both msd and me.
No hissing, no biting, no work with the talons.    hmmmmmmmm

As a matter of fact, when I would say something to her, she'd look up at me as if to say Hi bccs, thank msd for rescuing me.

Thinking that maybe you could use msd as a handler and me as a talker/calmer in future??  ;D ;D
