10 pm bedtime snack...

the blur is a parent leaving...and the chick with outstretched wings got it.

last time I looked, nobody was eating it. LOL

One just left the box! :nervous:

I saw where there was posted on the chat on the cam, that one made it out and then back in again earlier today. He hopped back in now, then he just hopped out again. Remind me of cats! :teehee:

To follow the conversation on the cam chat, they're wondering why they can't be hacked. It's too late! Not too late for canoes and motor boats to hold a falcon fledge watch! Don't know why they don't do that there. In PA fledges off the Columbia bridge are met by many boats in case they get in the water.

They're all 3 back in the box now. I didn't see the parent come, but they appear to be eating.

Great idea—if I were still in Virginia I’d volunteer.

I caught a parent there--I don't know which one and if he/she had food. When the circle stopped turning, he/she was gone. :girlsad3:

catwoman · **Posted:** Tue Jun 08, 2021 10:23 pm

All 3 in the box.

Thanks Catwoman for the pics...

I sure wish I lived near this nest. I would be camped out non-stop beginning NOW!!!

I will ask Bryan why he didn't transport these, but my guess is because we have the cam. He took most of the other bridge chicks up to the hack boxes.

A little one was playing with food. Hopping along with it in his talens, just about did a faceplant a couple of different times. :teehee:

Thanks Barb.

Having a cam never stopped them in the past..so, maybe another reason?

It was always so bitter sweet. they'd turn the cam back on, no babies, and parents coming to the box, searching.

This was 6/7:

Breakfast at approximately 7:20 am

One of the kids took it.

For a few seconds, Mom thought about getting it back but changed her mind and left.

Darn the circle (which means the cam isn't keeping up). I swear I saw 3 juvies in the box but by the time I took a capture with the circley thing going, I can only prove 2. :taz:

It's raining there. What do you want to bet that the third one is there to the left, the same place I saw him stick his head in momentarily. :layinrain:

I’m hoping the third is to the left too, they do seem to be bunched up over there.

Because last year was so bad, the guy that went up there and kicked the camera. I made a big stink about it and how he had ruined JJ's last season, and then JJ came back for another year. Maybe Bryan did it for the record book :)

I offered to pay Andy to keep this cam on, and I've never heard from him, so I think he just reset it and somehow getting the signal for free? Anyway, glad we get to see JJ as a 19 year old dad.

Let me know if you hear anything about payment, because I said I'd pay too!

JJ as a 19 year old dad--where did time go? :7val:
