Its been a very interesting morning...there has been a parent robin and 1 or 2 babies somewhere near the box.  At one point a baby robin must have been right next to the mic.  To add drama and suspense, a parent falcon was in the box, and occasionally would go to the perch...where the parent robin would dive bomb the falcon...Falcon took off and I hope parent robin didn't turn into breakfast.  I'm still hearing babies somewhere, just no parent at the moment..Falcon currently on the perch...just can't tell if its a parent or a juvie...

All 3 chiks in the nestbox for the night.  One is on the ledge watching and the other two are laying down. ;) :D

All three back in the box - two using the ledge as a pillow while one is standing guard on the ledge (and falling asleep...).

Somebody sitting on the ledge now, I think it's Lightning - still got some fluffies hanging off her.. ;D - She's calling to someone, and they are answering her back - been going on for 5 minutes now. Whoever she's screeching at hasn't shown up yet but they're definitely talking to each other!  :P

Nest is empty right now, can't see anyone out on the rails either. Guess they're having evening play-time - will check back later to see if the kids come home for bed time!  ;D

Looks like the brothers are back in the nest box - one of them now standing where it makes the camera and the light go all funky.  When they were side by side they were the same size it seemed, which is why I think these are the brothers.  Definitely juveniles with their brown vertical chest markings!
