When you were panning the camera I noticed when you went by the Roger's building it looked like there may have been birds on the R and S.  The shape looks like a falcon laying down.  It looked like the one on the R moved position as in sitting up and then it lay back down.   ???  :-X  :-\  Then again this could be the way the signs letters look normally.  ???

They look a bit like that but they are much too small - Pip has liked to cache food there in the past so I suspect that's what they are ... would love to know what they are but can't get close enough to get a clear image. When the chicks were young he only brought really small prey for Ella to feed to the chicks ...

Took the West side skycam and east side ledge cam for a tour around to see what I could see - only Ella on the east side ledge napping

Ah - so the 'Fledge' wasn't a real Fledge then - Just a big hop....LOL.... Hope we can see them again but with the new 'play area' they've discovered, maybe we won't - we'll wait for updates TPC!! ;D

A lot sure has happened.  I went into the hospital with pneumonia, when they freshly hatched, to come out and see they are close to fledging.   ;D :D :o

Wishing you continued good health, newchick!  :)

Not quite a fledge, rather Luke taking a big leap down the ledge. He did it well though especially because he hasn't been running around outside the box for more than a day and a night!  Was able to see where he landed with one of the other cams. He took a few steps after landing and I lost sight of him when it looked like he went through the opening in the louvres near the end of the ledge (there are two on this ledge - one just a foot from the nestbox and the other down near the south end of the ledge). There are openings in the louvres on all four sides so they can pick and choose where they want to spend their time!
