Just saw someone go zooming by, screeching! - What a blast they're all having now, really enjoying the freedom but still sticking near home.  ;D

yes, the male here reminds me of Trey a bit, although we don't see him too often.  He has the big mouctache that comes way down the sides and is nice and white.  With the mom and kids, I have to remember to look for vertical or horizontal striping. I forget that.

yup, but looked like she had white not really but not yellow, feet, was hard to see.  Adults have very bright yellow feet, notice the chicks have not yet.  lol... had to be mom though of course, big, and she flew around so easily.  she just left again with food, guys for those of you at work.  quite a catch she had in her feet.  Funny to see her sitting on the bar with the food dangling down.

Oh look!  An adult (I think mom) has brought some lunch and is screaming for everyone to come and get it.  No takers yet though.

the crane/truck/unidentified big thing is gone, and I'm hearing our family again.   No sightings, but plenty of screeches.

Maybe they could stop running the power plant just for a few minutes while they get that outside cam going?   ;D - I'm sure nobody would mind.... :P :P
