 ;D  ;D Just got back from down town what a lot of air activity this morning,seemed there were falcons all over the place,no sitting on the tower at this time. was hard to tell which was which. The juvies were really flying well lots of height and using the air currants. After awhile every body settled down.two went around the corner so we assumed they had gone to the annex. One was on the top light east side of clock tower, one flew over to Scotia Bank and landed on the S at the top. Zeus was hunting and came back with food in his talons and proceded to tease the one on the light,he flew very close several times but the juvie was having nothing to do with that and kept vocalizing  very loudly but refused to budge (spoiled kid) so zeus just returned to his light and proceded the eat whatever he had. Then rcmbf and I got a real treat, Zeus spotted a man on the roof of Princess towers (2 blocks away to the south) he took off straight over there circled the tower twice dive bombed him a couple of times and came back to his perch, on his way back he flew down 9th street right past where we were standing and about at our eye level. We  were only about 10 feet away could see all of him very clearly this could only happen once in a life time so we were truly awestruck :o :o He flew right past us,so I guess he didn't consider us a threat. What an exciting morning!!!!

well now that I look at the link I understand.  You need to use a link that has a jpg or gif or some other image format.

when you have the image you want on your screen, try right clicking on it and select "properties" (if you're using a mac I'm useless for this part).  Under properties it will show something that has a link with an image format.  if it doesn't (because the image itself is link, like the photo of Trey above) then go to the actual link instead of the thumbnail and try again.  The image will be resized here anyway so don't worry about that.  TPC has you covered there.  Take that to use between the [img] tags here.

I sure would love to virtually participate in the fledge watch you guys are having, so it'd be great if the image showed!  (BOT, see?)
