TPC said they usually fledge here at dawn, but it can happen any time....

but these kids seem pretty happy to stay where they are, and I'm happy for them to do that!

(my cam is locking up sometimes too - probably a traffic issue - but it unlocks itself so that is good)

Whole lot of flapping going on by the 2 chicks left on the ledge! :o But TPC did say fledging is usually occurs at dawn or dusk. May be too hot in the midday sun and not enough of an updraft. :P

Two on the south edge of the ledge and both flapping like crazy.  So...nervous.
My picture keeps freezing. Darn lite speed.
One jumped off onto the ledge.  Good.
Better go and get my housework done.

 Nothing on the radar, clear to Regina. Maybe daytime heating.
 Let's hope all the "thunder" will be below the 49th tonight. LOL

One on the drain cover and the other on Trey point.  Glad you had a nice walk Kinderchick.  It's also sunny in my neck of the woods as well. :D

yeah, Kinderchick - I've always liked that thought.  does 50% chance mean "might rain, might not" ?

I see one chick on drain cover and one on Point Trey.

sorry to report there is a chance of thunderstorms this afternoon in Winnipeg.  but only 40%.  Could be worse.
Ah, but Pchemist, 40% chance of rain, also means 60% chance of no rain! ;D Just got back from taking my dog for a walk and it's nice and sunny in my neck of the woods. Did I miss any excitement?! ??? Do I see 2 chicks on the drain cover?! ???

It is looking kinda grey there  :o  Are y'all gonna get rained on. Again!
There is a chance of Thunderstorms today....system that hit Alberta and Saskatchewan is making it's way here...You'll be hit first if it happens ;)

Yep, it's lookin' pretty overcast here too.  I hope we get a thunderboomer.  We did have rain when I woke up the first time around 7:30, but that moved on.  Prolly what you are getting soon.

 Pchemist;
 That's probably because they were up most of the night!
 I think they were throwing a going away party for the big bro. LOL

glad the other two don't look at all inclined to fledge today.  or even move around much, for that matter.  they are seriously unimpressed by the fact their brother moved out.   Probably only argued briefly about who got his room and stuff.
