Radisson - 2008 / Trey & Princess

[skygirlblue]

I wish she would get off the eggs one more time before I have to call it a night...

[skygirlblue]

She does look bored...and very sleepy....those little eyes keep closing and opening...wait...those are my little eyes...  Well, now she's awake...looks like she burped...do falcons burp....time to play with the rocks again....

[Liz]

Or not!  She was trying; her eyes were definitely closing.

[Liz]

She's drifting off to sleep!

Wow!! - On the Great River Energy cam, a small bird had the bad luck of flying too close to the nest, was royally yelled at by 'Mom', then off she swoops for a couple minutes, leaving the squealing chicks alone. Comes back with 'Dinner' - Must be the unfortunate small bird? - anyway lots of screeching and excitement, they all had a feast. Such fun!! My husband thinks I'm obsessed. I guess he's right.... Princess looks bored. 

The amount of screeching was amazing!  Guess s/he paid the price!

My internet shut down suddenly, but I got in again no problem.  This is the site I use:

Help??

Nothing... I cannot believe it.  I restarted my computer, it all started when I went to view the Perigrines in the UK, I have since to get back on.

Forgive this stupid question...but clicking on the above link or manually entering into WMP did no good?  YIKES...that's a bummer...streaming is working fine for me...I wonder if too many people are on and that's why?  Don't give up....

Here's my wishful thinking...I just got a nano-second look at an egg...not the white spot, but a suspicious spot....it could be that I've got the cam open too large and its distorted...hmmmmmmm

[skygirlblue]

Liz, one convert?  That's great...just think if you got one a day...how cool would that be!!!!  That is so neat that you are that close!!! 

The people I work with?  They just look at me and laugh...but that's ok....they don't know what they're missing...

[deedream]

getting a good look at those eggs again.  Not sure but that white spot seems bigger? Maybe wishful thinking. 

[Liz]

Who would have guessed that I would spend so much time squinting to look at spots on eggs under a falcon's butt?  Sigh... 

Thanks for much for the guffaw, Teamla!!  That's exactly the truth, ain't it!   

I had to chuckle when I read this....I currently have 3 cams open and 2 forums...cat in my lap and tv on....staring...waiting for a hatch at one, mom to get up on another one, and a parent to feed....ain't life grand...have you ever tried to explain this to family and friends?  I don't know about yours, but they look at me like I'm crazy....

I know what you mean skygirlblue, except for me it's the people at work (my family gets it).  We can see the hotel from our window, three blocks away.  I am always staring at it hoping to catch a glimpse of a soaring parent, or at the JR sign (which is right in front of me, although up many stories) looking for Princess.  But I had one convert today, who asked me to show her where to find to CBC site -- Yay!!!
