She has been in and out quite a bit and seemed quite upset for awhile.
I am under the weather so could not get down there.
she seems more relaxed now
A few shots of her squawking and really surveying the area.

Great to see the photos and know that they have been around.  Thanks Bev.  I have been missing them all day.

Yes, it is just she was standing so still and not straight either, I actually thought the cam was frozen...she was stuck in mid pose...very cool actually!  Maybe she knows she's a little star like her papa and she's practicing her poses for paparazzi  ;)

As she gets close to laying eggs she will be here longer and longer

Bowing time in the box...6:29 pm EST..I love when they do that... :P
Whoa, I saw that and love it too  ;D  And just now saw another P in the box, I think that it may have been the male. Very handsome bird.  And I can no longer see the raven's egg.  Either they buried it altogether or removed it.  Love the continuing good news here.  ;D

Its the same thing that makes Trey our rockstart even though Princess is a very attractive and memorable bird ... Ivy has it too.  Trey got it from T-Rex for sure.  Pop was more elusive but he seemed to have "it" too ....

I have to say that Radisson is one beautiful falcon, there's something about her I could watch her just perched there for hours.
