One of the chicks (female I think) decided to see what was up on the ledge and took a short stroll...perhaps she thought it was a long ways down and soon returned back to the box. All three now settled down for the night...counting pigeons.

How amazing to have seven juvies' leg band colours to check in the Winnipeg skies.

Dennis is working late today so probably no photos for awhile I'm afraid, though I do have one or two that will turn up on the blog tomorrow.  As for the video, Eye-Spy is going to put it on a disk for me along with the Radisson banding and I will get it in as soon as I can.

Chicks were very quiet, the protested our banding them but they didn't scream at us as the Radisson chicks did.  Not unusual, some nests are just quieter at banding age than others.  Jules and Beau have done a nice job with them, they are all about the same size (yet another nest of them!) - 1 male, 2 females according to leg size.  We have put coloured tape on the male and one of the females but on the left leg rather than the right leg in case the Radisson chicks are still around town when these little guys start to fly in 3 weeks.

Not sure what time the banding was taking place today but hope all is going well for you with the "west" babies!  Beau and Jules will have a first time experience with this too :o  Will look forward to the pictures! ;D
