HOLY COW!!  That looks hilarious, like a bunch of troublemakers.  4 is a lot more work than 2.

Nice that these two seem able to stand back out of the drama. 

They may have enough to do keeping up with four growing chicks.

[bev.]

things continue to go well so far.

Peter nd I di d go out there on Monday June 3 to check it out. We think the reason female is always calling and on ledge is becsue there are a lot of hawks flying around and a lot of ravens. It is a real Zoo LOL

Ravens chase the hawks and small birds chase ravens and hawks. Lots of action and noise. but we did not see male or female chase after any hawks , I think they choose their battles

The male may be different than last yer as it does not perch on top of tower like last year
We think he likes it over by light blue buildings with vents. that is where we saw them both fly .
You may not always see them in box but they are on outside rail or just to left and  right of box.
We stayed till we saw food brought in.

Lots of good feeds. Rocky start after last chick was born but doing good righ t now

I will post a few shots and then you can look in my albums . they are scattered in there
