Radisson - 2012 / Ivy & Princess

[RCF]

One kid tried to swallow a leg, Ivy took it away from him. 

Hello RCF        A question for you. Is it me or have you changed your screen name to RCF? I am thinking.......? GCG

Yes, I did have it changed since most forum members call me RCF anyway.

Holy smokes! Are those little guys ever getting big!

There's a feeding going on right now. Lucky for us, the chicks are standing closer to the camera, also, they are bigger.

The sun is starting to hit the chicks now, its a bit weak at the moment but with a few less clouds they could be sprawled out having a little bake in a little while.  One of the adults, Princess I think, is on the box edge and the wind has come up quite a bit from this morning, at least at the Radisson on the 30th floor.

Oops, now she's off but I think she was off with a goal in mind ...

Wow, seing the chicks beside Ivy sure shows how much they are growing.  No wonder they need such frequent feedings.

Just checked the sky-cam and the sun is coming over the Radisson and the sunlight is about 6 inches from the overhang - so long as the sun stays out, the chicks should be in the sun within the next 30-45 minutes ... not hot today so the sun should be pleasant for the chicks to nap in this afternoon.  Keep your fingers crossed that the clouds don't come in too fast and the kids get to enjoy the sun abit today.

Did a little backtracking and the first meal of the day was just after 3am.  From 0530 to 1100 there were an additional 8 meals - small and quick but meals.  Interesting to watch ... they are definitely on different feeding schedules but everyone is getting fed.

And Ivy is getting his time with the kids now.  Yesterday was the 10 day mark and you can definitely tell the adults know that

This is not my video but half way through at least one kid is swallowing big pieces.....legs and such.  YUM YUM

6:25 I think I just missed breakfast, tuned in to see 2 chicks headed for the wall and the back side of 2 chicks who were "outside" and seemed to be finishing breakfast.

They are now all cuddled by the back wall with a parent keeping everyone cozy.

One of the chicks poked his/her head out to nibble on some 'leftovers' close by  

Looks like a lovely day - a high of 18 and no rain in the forecast till this evening.

6:45 - Incoming food & noisy chicks. Three quite interested in what is being served, the fourth found 'left overs' to investigate.

7:15 - yet another snack!
