First time seeing P&T together for me!!!

[Liz]

Oh, good -- S/he finally got out from under!

oh a nice view of them all sticking their heads up and getting fed.

Looks like two of the chicks are interested, curious the 3rd isn't poking it's head up for for but then when sibling practically sitting on top  makes it hard

It's dinner time, I think it's Trey with his back to the camera, didn't get a look a what he brought for the kids. Oh  now he's got both feet on it as he picks it apart and one chicks seem somewhat interested lol

[Liz]

Good view of the babies.  That one on the right is trying to stand up!

Looks like the chicks are left to themselves for amoment, let's see if it's shift change or feeding.

[eagle63_1999]

no I guess it's Princess, not use to seeing her houseclean.

[Baffled]

His housekeeping has taken him right off into the corner, leaving the pile of chicks behind. Both parent and chicks seem totally unfazed about the situation.

The Minnesota Elk River falcons, now a week old, are spending much more time not covered up, just hanging out in their fluff pile while mom or dad perches nearby. That will be our chicks soon!

Here goes the housecleaning again, that must be Trey.  And the little ones are just taking it all in stride.

Not sure who is sitting on the brood but I can see one of the little chicks legs and foot sticking out for a second or two

Thanks to everyone for the reports through the day.  I can't access the falcon cam at work but I can read the falcon forum and the Peregrinations, so I don't go into complete withdrawl. 
I think it is Princess sitting on the chicks now and she is facing the camera and I can see the little balls of fluff under her.

soooo cute.

Glad to do it, nice to know I am helping others enjoy the Falcons as much as I enjoy watching them. I am unemployed so I have the time

[Pchemist]

Thanks for the play by play letting me (and everyone) know things are going well.  I'm stuck at a business conference all week with limited time to pull out the laptop and no time to watch.
