Radisson - 2008 / Trey & Princess

[ballywing]

Mother Hen, I'm pretty sure it's the West Side Nestbox TPC has been checking - P&T probably know they're not allowed nesting on the East side ledge anymore.. - as for 'muffing' - seems to me maybe Tracy made that word up as I 'googled' it (yes I google everything  ) - and I can't find such a word. I'm guessing it means rubbing or patting or grinding their chests into the gravel??

[Mother Hen]

So Tracy
If they a "muffing" what ever that means are they doing it in the West side Penthouse or on the East side?? I am still hoping for at least one chick since you didn't bring one from Brandon.

Just had to pop in and say Hi and hope you are all hanging in there

still waiting here in Edmonton. I believe it is Day 32 of tight incubation of the second egg.  I said anytime after June 24 becasue of the first egg but I know they like them to hatch close so ..... I have to be out most of the morning so I hope they wait for me but I am thinking tomorrow or the weekend.  she sure is checking and moving a lot though.  Not knowing what to expect I guess.

For all you fanatics who love and miss seeing Peregrines "in action", check this out!

The pics sure do prove being in the right place and snapping at the right time for a great progression of shots, but can it really be true the heron flew away unharmed?    It looks to me like there was definite contact between the two birds, especially since the heron was on it's back and falling. I actually thought one of its wings looked really injured...would the peregrine attack and leave? I do really hope the heron survived once it landed!      They are amazing photos, but I can't help but worry for the heron!

Yeah, it's getting late for TPC to get back on.  Probably can call it a night.  Sleep well Liz.

[Liz]

There are so many topics going, not sure which is appropriate for this.  But since it's about today, and it IS today.....  going to bed kids!  Still trying to catch up from Grad night, I guess.  Have a good sleep. one and all.

Hey Sheila - we love to hear your observations of P&T having conversations and 'stuff' going on and flowers and such!  - come on and join us!! 

[Pam]

Oh, she watches alright!!  More than me, even!  She reads the forum, too, so I'll be outed for sure!  Hi Sheila!

[Liz]

Pam, I have no pb with Sheila continuing on with her personal thoughts as relayed by you.  I actually think it's pretty funny! Whatever she's comfortable with -- just glad she's watching too! 

[Pam]

Methinks I'll have some explaining to do to Sheila in the morning!  You folks sound like chicks waiting to be fed - join! join! join!  Very funny, I love it.
Maybe you all will be more successful than I've been in convincing her!  She is a true falcon fan!

Good one Liz, TPC's 'egg' joke.......

[Liz]

Looking "heavy"      Y'all crack me up!

As of this morning, no eggs in the nestbox though someone had been "muffing" up the nest scrape so we will give it another couple of days. 

TPC, what's "muffing"? 

("Crack" me up -- LOL!  An egg joke!) 

[Moonstar]

I was so hoping Princess and Trey would re-nest this year.  I was really looking forward to watching the chick/chicks grow and fledge.  I guess we will just have to wait for next year.  I do still have a bit of hope tho.

Terrific news from Brandon, Tracy. Love to hear they're healthy (fat even) and doing well. Looking forward to seeing pics!
