[BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY]

Hey Carol...Please wish Brian a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY from Don and me!!!

Thanks for posting Donna.  It certainly appears a bit more encouraging...I think.

That would be wonderful!  It's a learning process 

This past Sunday we went to Syracuse to see how they were doing.  When we arrived around 9 am, we could see one of the juvies eating on a City Hall Bell Tower column.  It turned out to be Chinook.  We then saw Fancy on Verizon in her usual spot.  There was one juvie hanging around the nest box ledge also eating, it turned out to be Hiawatha. 

Around 10 am suddenly we saw three juvies flying around the Bell Tower.  I love the way they can hunker down out of sight.  Fancy had flown in...maybe with more food??  We couldn't tell, but definitely enjoyed the flying!  When all settled down, Chinook and Chase were eating on the Bell Tower again, and Pilgrim was on a nearby roof top.  Soon we saw Groucho fly in and land on the side of the Church steeple.

We left a bit after 11, but had seen all four juvies and both adults.   

I think she's caching food back there!

Ha Joyce...you got caught on that one!   

Yeah!!  Glad to hear it, she looks better today!

Hmmm...I;ve been noticing the same thing.  I can easily id Callidora because she is sooo much bigger than Jemison!  Oh, and thanks for all the cam pics...wish they would stay in view!

I can now see Jemison to the left of the box on the outside.  Anyone see Callidora??  Gosh, I wish they would stay in the box and in cam view!

Anyone know where they are?  I have tried all the various cam views and video, but no falcons.

Actually it is the blog which is down, but they are working to restore it.

I just checked, but the cam is down at the moment.  Let's hope for her, but you are right, can not imagine how she could possibly endure the migratory journey. 

Thanks!  I just got home and, of course, checked the cam...only one!  And I tried all the views, etc.  There must be lots of "out of cam view" nooks for them around the box.

Oh, that is so sad!  I did not realize an Osprey could live to be that old!!  She is truly amazing!!  And so many fledglings...incredible!  One positive note, she has certainly done her job to pass on her good genes. 

I think BB was just getting bad press, she is a mom protecting her kids. 

So, Sage how many folks are helping you with the fledge watch of all the nests?  We thought about going to Buffalo to help you out, but it is a bit of a drive from Ithaca.
