Just watched that feeding, MH.  Chicks are getting more aggressive and rambunctious, all looking so healthy (even though Princess isn't having a good year according to one of the CBC comments ::)).  One chick seems smaller than the other three - wonder if that's the chick who hatched last or maybe a male?  Perhaps we have three big girls and a boy ???

Looks like Princess left and Ivy came in to cuddle the kids. :)

Who was it who came up with the phrase "huddle-cuddle" a couple of years ago?  Not sure if it has made it into the Phanatic's Dictionary yet but will check.  In any case, with the cooler temps this morning (its been so warm since they hatched I'm sure it was a shock), this morning's chickpiles have definitely been "huddle-cuddles"!
Just an FYI, and I know I'm off topic, nothing new, but, the "huddle-cuddle", was, and always will be, bccs' remark about two years ago for the ever so cute white fluffy chicks!
Here's the original, thanks Alli, for finding it June 10-2010.

I think Ivy is going to need to bring in an overstufffed pigeon to feed these little ones. 
Lil one didn't get anything...until next feeding!

Supper time.

We had a light rain a little while ago - and I think we may get some more - but not raining out now (I'm in Osborne Village - just a few km from the Raddison)

Sounds like its raining in Winnipeg, doesn't look like its getting wet in the nest box which is a good thing.  :)

 ;)  Lots of hoovering around is needed as the nestbox needs to be housecleaned!!  haha, remember last year when they had all the left-over munchies piling up?  Guess they are there for the chicks to learn how to use their little beaks.  Amazing how much strength these little ones have!

At what age do the chicks start to pick at the carcasses that are brought for the munch times?  

And its munch time now!

I think it was just seven days on Saturday and Sunday, KC.  So I'm thinking Tuesday and Wednesday will be ten days, n'est ce pas?...
Ah, yes, you are right, susha. Guess I can't count this morning! ;) LOL!

Good evening all!  Nice to have the falcons back and active...
And nice to have you back too, cadria! :) BOT, mid-morning snack for the chicks. Are they ever getting big! I guess they must all be at least 10 days old, so should be able to thermoregulate themselves now. Nice that they all made it safely through that 10 day post birth period. :D
