When a guy's gotta clean, it makes no difference where, he's just gotta do it. ::)

Maybe Trey will remember the horrid state the ledge is in now and stick to the nest box on the west next year.

I love the series of photos! Trey's intentions in his weedwhacking quest are good but, as you suggested, the weeds don't seem to have suffered any harm. He should stick to sitting on the vent overseeing the crop!  ::)

For those of you dying for another look at Princess & Trey ... here are a couple of "peeks" from today on the east side Radisson Sign


Trey in the morning sun



Princess being uncharacteristically cute for the camera



And here's the link to Trey's impersonation of a weedwhacker a bit earlier in the day

1400 hrs (local)

Princess is on the green slash under the R on the east side sign (she's preening) and Trey is on the top of the N at the other end napping in the shade.  Not much wind it looks like downtown, don't see any/much feather fluffing going on ...

Trey was playing lawnmower at about 9:30-10:00 this morning on the ledge - I have some spycam images that I will post in the photo gallery shortly... very cute!

No idea Helen, that's a TPC question.
Trey has left the ledge, but Princess is still there. Pam has a lovely butt shot of her if she looks out. ;D

Are they trying to get the kids more independent before they migrate?

Was just outside with Pam, both Trey and Princess are on the ledge on the Sterling building, likely hiding from the kids. ::)

Pam, I'm really looking forward to seeing your pictures of Princess and Trey on the ledge -- and it's great to have another pair of eyes, with a different angle, keeping watch over the family.  :D

All the birdies have flown away and are on secret falcon business. But it was splendid while it lasted. And the day isn't over yet, who knows..... ;D
