maybe Dennis can come over with the camera...I might be able to get him up to one of the upper floors to get a better picture than from down on the ground.

Now that you have my attention...perhaps I have a "New Friend in High Places"...lol I would be interested in getting higher than ground level for sure. Contact me so we can work things out hopefully ?

Somebody was on the nestbox ledge as I looked up at about 12:05. From TPC's comments, I assume it was Princess. Whoever it was, was standing tall and puffing out her chest into the sun.  8)

Yup, Princess is the one parked in the sun at the moment.  Eggs are still in the shade, so she might hang out until they are in the sun before moving back in if that's her inclination ...

1200 noon local

Princess hanging out on the box edge; sun just about to hit the west side of the Radisson so she'll be nice and warm soon.  Looking at her feathers, wind is still blowing from the NNW, not too much but enough to give the skycam a bit of a wobble every so often.

Walked all the way down the north side of portage this morning so had my head up. She must be tucked in because I could not see anyone from the street. At portage and main looking straight up an unmistakable peregrine WAY up there. Otherwise I did not spot any action at all. You are soooo lucky TPC!

Not that much action on camera either I'm afraid BCF - mostly its just Ivy on the box edge and Princess off elsewhere doing something ...  not that it will look hugely different when they start incubating, it will just be one or the other asleep on eggs for 23.5 hours a day .... for a month ... then the fun really begins !

Interesting and yet HSC seems very close as the Peregrine flies?!

It is close and part of the Radisson territory but at the moment Princess and Ivy are pre-occupied with egg-laying and the HSC location Birdnut is talking about is kind of hidden from site.  So as long as Beau and Jules keep their heads down, they can probably get away with visiting there from time to time.

my times might be out by 5 minutes..we have the clocks in our vehicles set five minutes fast (theory being we will never be late for anything-not that it works!)..

Ivy is back at the nestbox and is parked on the eggs.  For those not in Winnipeg, its very sunny here but colder the normal - usual temps at this time of the year is +12C, we are currently 0C but with the windchill -4C.  Probabaly at least that cold if not a bit colder in the box as the sun hasn't come around to warm it up and there is a wind from the north-north-west.

6:15 p.m. on Sat - male on his favorite spot at hsc - on the "J" on the east side.  She came flying in as I was watching and landed on the south facing letters.
12: 45 p.m. on Sun - both of them were here again - sitting on the same spots as yesterday.
8:05 this morning - he is sitting on the east "J" and she is sitting up in the roof top.

Good sightings Birdnut, but not the Radisson birds I'm afraid  ;)  Checked the recorder and either Princess or Ivy was on site at the Radisson (on camera) at all the times you listed.
As for Beau and Jules from West Winnipeg - well the times seem to mesh with absences from their other favourite sites ...
