It's not live for anyone (except TPC) to see right now.  We only know what she tells us and Dennis shows us.   ;D

TPC is supposed to let us all know...we are all hoping very very very soon!

I think the Winnipeg crowd are having Princess and Trey withdrawals, myself included!   ::)

I wish I could watch for hours..

Once you log in to any one of the webcams, you'll notice this "head twitch" right away!  I don't get it what it means or if it means anything.  Just noticed it and wondered!

Hi Liz. I'm one of the fortunate few that is able to keep the web cam open while I'm at work. I get alerts about in-coming stuff, but a lot of my job is with real honest-to-god paper. A bit old fashioned, but it works for me. And the more paper on the desk, the busier you are. ;D ;D

Always thought he had ear mites. ;D
LMAO!  Yeah I had a (cat) like that once!  (the code for 'unreadable', and not an opening to veer off 'cheese') 

I guess I was never able to watch for hours - didn't notice a twitch.  But I sure will watch for it now!

1315 hrs (local) - Trey has turned himself so he's facing south and he's right up against the wall.  The wind seems not be bothering him but he's doing that freaky little head shake he does - and no, he does it rain or shine, its a bit like a shiver.  Have seen Princess do it too this year and I don't remember her doing it previous years, but I may just not be remembering.  Freaky cute though.  Anywho, the ledge looks dry, there is some wind but Trey is just tucked down doing his duty ... no housekeeping today for him though!
I've noticed that head "twitch" thing with other falcons as well...I remember watching the cam last year and noticed that Princess and Trey both do it, but last year I thought, oh my, did they hurt themselves or something because they were twitching a lot.  Wasn't sure why falcons did this?

Hey, I just noticed that when posting, you automatically go back to the original topic. No more additional options.
Thanks TPC, you just quietly make life easier.( and the fans in the stands are doing the wave. Parentheses again, don't want da boss to think we adore her.)

When I checked the birds at 0700 hrs this morning, they were dry and they were only occasionally getting little puffs of wind around the corner of the Hotel.  I'm watching Trey at the moment on the eggs and he is down flat and he's getting "fluffed" a little then a lot when a gust blows through but it doesn't appear as though its catching his tail or wing feathers and its not pushing against his body.  Looking at the online weather thingies, looks like the wind is from the northwest and the Hotel is giving some protection.  The ledge is also dry so no worries there.

It is sooooooooo windy today. I hope that Trey and Princess can keep the eggs covered. If not Tracy get your butt up there,right now.
