I still have to create that account.  Won't let me go past the first pic.  Just haven't had time.  But, as I saw them on cam I know what they are and they are nice.
Thanks for sharing.

got the pictures they were taken with a small digital camera turned out pretty good for an amature eh rcmbf1

I was across the street when taking them, has a little zoom on it.  It's a far cry from Dennis's camera  :)

Thanks for the info and contact numbers TPC, now I can stop stewing about what to do if an adverse situation turns up and I'm around.

Rose pretty much summed it up on her post, it was a great day for fledging. We got to meet Gliderpeople from Dauphin and again Birdlover from banding day.  It was awesome to see Fate fly so well from building to building. I think he flew over to the MTS building cause there was a robin dive bombing him :)
I took some pictures, so I hope this link works.

You betcha.  And I wasn't embarrassed in front of strangers one bit   :P

I am having a ball with this whole thing.  My only regret is not having wheels to get there more frequently.  If I had a vehicle last night I would have been down there again.  Darn kid needed his car back  :(

Hey bl, I think we all become like kids again.Watching our birdie familys is so amazing, a new experience - just like kids, cheering and hollering with delight. Nice to shed some of the "adult personna" and forget about ourselves and just enjoy.

Unfortunately I had to leave when everyone else did.  I hadn't had lunch and was starving.

It is the most amazing thing bccs.  I was hooting and hollering when our boy took the fly up to the next building.    Did that when I finally got to see my golden girl jumping up/down from the roof of the nest box.

Oh, forgot to mention that we saw both Hurricane and Zeus fly from the MTS tower at the same time and go hunting for a pigeon.  It was very cool to watch.  I don't think they were all that interested cuz they came back to roost on the tower fairly quickly without any food.

Fantastic reporting ladies ;D ;D    Is this not the most fun in the world??
It's worth every tired moment, sore neck, missed meals, sunburnt skin and weary legs. And I'm missing it so very much.
Enjoy it guys, it's gone too soon.
