Not happy this AM......only have a black screen so am feeling deprived! Haven't had any trouble until now so guess it's my turn.

We have sunshine in Swan River, hopefully some will make it's way south and shine on T&P and family.

Did you get the big thunderstorm in Winnipeg that we got here in Brandon?  Sounded like fairly heavy rain and lots of noise.  It was a short one so if it does reach the Peg, I'll keep my fingers crossed that it hasn't built up but has died down some.

That real time weather watch is very cool TPC.  Have bookmarked that so I know what is happening in the Peg.  The wind sure is swinging around a lot!!!  Hope no one gets blown off the chicks today  :o

Happy Peregrine watching today, folks!

Poor P&T, but at least they have that nice nextbox to help out!  It's only 5c here this morning too...don't know where Spring is but certainly not here!

Yup, weather officially sucks for Princess and Trey right now - only 9c (we had an arctic snap on Friday), wind wrong direction(s) and gusty, there was rain and 40% chance of more. 

Hang in there, think velcro!  Suspect Princess will be on for most of today if the weather stays like this ...

0759 hrs (local) - Think it was a case of "lousy weather, come back later, I got to keep the kids totally covered"  - and she is!  There is a bit right in front of her that she picks at, but not sure there is much there for her ...

The wind is really clocking around right now - suppose to clock around to the north by this afternoon and drop from 30+ km/h (with gusts it appears) to 20 km/h.

If you want to be able to watch the wind clock and track the wind speeds, have this open in a window beside the webcam image U of Winnipeg online real-time weather station - the university is just down the street from the Hotel and seems to be the closest real-time station I can find ...

And here comes Trey again to deliver another morsel of food.  Oops! Princess didn't want to get up . Trey got the food almost to her beak and then took off with it  ???  What was that all about?

A damp looking Princess is serving breakfast.  Three little chicks all stretching up as high as possible. Now collapsing into a chick pile and mom is covering them up.  Feathers are being ruffled so I don't think Princess wanted the chicks uncovered for too long.

Eating time . and I think it is Dad feeding the kids and he is so gentle feeding them.
