I especially like it when, like now, you can see their shadows cast on the nest box wall in the back.  Seems quite artistic.

Hard to believe they were uncoordinated balls of fluff so short a time ago!

Hmmm, something must be interesting below - all three simultaneously went into a vulture pose, dipping heads down to look at something.  Wonder what!

Ah, the three amigos are all lined up watching the night go by.  Still no audio.  If you do write to the webmaster, ask for the outside camera!  ;D

Wonder if they establish a perching/roosting rank, who sit in which order etc.  ;D ;D  Nice to see them.

Leaving you on that thought... Goodnight all.

They were clearly not happy campers!  We were trying to watch them out the window at the same time as on the live video - oops, not to mention working....... ;D

The squawking is amazing.  I asked Tracy on our little jaunt the other day if the noise we've been hearing on this web cam is normal - she said it was.....the only time I've heard P&T clearly was last year when they were doing the banding - could hear them from inside our office!

Adding my congratulations to Ballywing. It so captured the story.
So sorry that Princess & Trey didn't agree to foster....I'm just catching up here.
Good news though I have a Robin's nest in my garden with two eggs that I'm expecting to hatch in 2 weeks.....my grandchildren are visiting so I'm busy protecting the snowball tree(where the nest is) Momma Robin gets very nervous when the little ones are out there playing. I just pretend they are my falcon chicks!!!!
