Past midnight in Toronto and Winnipeg with the cam still live. 
No one is stirring, not even a birdie.

So great to see the birds on the webcam, one last time for the season. Looking forward to some live aerial shows downtown some evening. I wish them all a safe journey when they finally do leave, for Mexico or Chile or wherever it is that they fly to. :) Thank you TPC, Eye-Spy, Dennis, Dr. Bob for sharing this wonderful world of peregrine falcons with all of us. :-*

RCM    Thanks for the video!!!!!      And then there were the other videos of the kids.....Beatrix in the smokestack!!!    What would have happened to her if the workmen had not accidentally found her???   And then TPC to the rescue.

Great to have all the videos.

Thanks RCF.  My eyes aren't the greatest anymore but with magnification on the screen I would say that it was Carson also.  Was that a big pellet on the ledge.............looked like an egg rolling around?  Oh so nice to see them for the last time on camera.  Sure will miss this nightly guessing as to which of them will come home to bed ::) It was only two, right.  But I could possibly have missed one.  Been a wonderful year of watching, waiting, hanging on with the toenails ..............just covered it all.  Cameras were great..........Thank you everyone involved in the whole process. My hat is off to the whole crew!  Will chat again another day as the watchers tune in to let us know what is going on. G'nite. ;D

It's Carson.  ;D  I took video and the tape on his band is yellow. I will post the video after I convert it and upload to YouTube.

Good night my beauties. Cade, Carson, and Beatrix. Fly free and stay safe.
Maybe one year you will come to nest in Manitoba, and we will see you again.  :)

Now they're in the nest box, having a little conflab.  Perhaps they're planning to do a little "cam closing" send-off.  Maybe come up to the cam again and do a little tap-dancing, sing a little song - of course we won't hear the song... :-[  never mind...

I thought it was Bea as well, as you can see the dark band in your photo rcm.  The cam is getting all fuzzy now and blotchy so I will say goodnight to the birdwatchers and the somebirdies in the nestbox and the one on the ledge by the box.  :)

Two light coloured leg bands, I think.
Nope, the one following Carson had a dark band on the right leg.  So it was Bea.  RCM took a video and will post it tomorrow.  He made the identification!!

On the ledge.  They just walked down to the cam and are going back to the nest box now.
