Not to start a huge off topic, but what the heck is a Junk Yard Party?

Just a garden wine & cheese party and other good nibbles  :)

Just to add to Rose's observation,  I thought the one who was on the black/green ledge may have been Karma or Kismet because when she stood up to take a poop shot over the edge I'm pretty sure I saw yellow on her leg. I think all of them were just waiting for Mom & Dad to come home with takeout :)

NICE, thanks for this Rose.  I really appreciate that you have been so dedicated to our kids!!  It was just not the same this afternoon with only seeing one of the kids and one of the parents.

Hope the Junk Yard Party was fun too.  ;)  Oh, and thanks for the ride home this afternoon.  Much better than the bus.   ;D

Well BL you can rest easy,rcmbf and I went down town for an hour before we went to the Junk Yard Party,we saw the four chicks all were on theMcKenzie building in various places.one was on the roof of the tower( very top), one was on zeus's light,one was at the base of the tower and one was on the ledge above where Zeus hids his food.It looked like it had something to chew on,we didn't see it till it stood up and stretched. No parents in sight. guess they were taking a break.

Stoopid pigeons...

Yes, I seem to say that quite often, especially when I'm looking through binos  ;D

And nice new binos they are too  ;)

Yesterday, RCMF and I found the wings of a green winged teal and today Rose and I found a fairly fresh remains of a blue winged teal.  So, they are eating   ;D  That much was confirmed LOL.

Variety is good, prolly getting sick of eating pigeon all the time,  cause there sure is lots of them.  ::)

It is seriously windy here again today so didn't see much of anything.  Rose met me at the parkade and we did a walkabout.  Only two birds up at the top of the clock tower and that is all.  One was Zeus and the other looked like a kid, but it was WAY too windy to tell cuz the feathers were every-which-way in the breeze.

Rose and RCMF may go down this evening but if the wind is this strong the chances that the kids have come out of hiding are pretty slim.
