Our little lady is wingercizing madly. It's odd to see so much white fluff when she lifts her darker wings.

I think Yellow may be the smallest of our three males ... WHite had a little visit with Yellow before bombing back to the outside-box-cam and he looked bigger than Yellow as well ...

Its 1206hrs and LG is back to napping inside the box ...

Interesting, two of our males were sitting together at the north end of the nestbox and Red looked decidedly bigger than Yellow ...

(it will be nice to call them by name starting Tuesday!!)

1153 hrs

And they are off again ... Red running around (literally) the box, outside-inside-outside, wingercizing all the time.  White and LG looking for scraps in the remains.  Yellow fussing and fidgeting, inside, outside, inside ....

1149hrs

Okay, more excitement  ... Red has been outside all morning watching the world go by.  Yellow, White and our little girl have been inside napping.  Then Yellow and White decided some preening was needed.  Then White came out for a little look around, then wingercizing and hanging onto the remains from a previous meal.  That prompted Yellow to come out to check out the remains and LG came out to check out the fuss.  Red had a stretch, rolled his eyes at the fuss then decided to wingercize when Yellow decided to try to climb on the ledge side of the box edge.  Chaos ensued.  Lots of wings, Yellow decided against (or couldn't) get onto the edge and now everyone is back in the box.

This is a very cool snapshot of Mr White.  You can really see the brown feathers, especially on his face!

Changed the camera angle because the two of the box and the girl are all plunked down in the back corner of the box (right in front of the camera) in a chick pile sleeping - heads looking toward the camera.  Not many more of these I'm afraid folks, chicks are 34, 33 (x2) and 31 days old.  This time next week we could have at least one of the Radisson chicks on the wing ...  :'(

Two of the boys in the two outside corners, looking like little sentries.  :)

Sure glad our chicks are in a sheltered place.  I understand we had some thunder and lightening last night. Missed it..........in the land of nod and heard nary a sound!
