Just checking...so Metropolitan is what was formerly known as Chase and Lincoln?

Yep.

Awesome, Ei!!!!

 

It would be great it someone were to pursue this case further, tracking the success or failure of past nesting at that site, past infant and adult deaths, and by studying the prey as well. I'm getting visions of the canary in the coal mine, and I wish Cadence would move to another site. 

Precious bird.   

A little less wing on the landing and you've got it, son.

 

OMG that's hilarious!!!!   

  Nice to meet you yesterday, Suzi!  Thanks for joining the watch. 

 

Thanks for posting. I saw on Facebook that they had both visited the nestbox.  Another miracle for Great Spirit Bluff!   

I'll be in the hole at about 5:30. I know we've usually just been hitting Subway or He's Chinese Restaurant during evening watches, but we certainly do something different if people are up for it, since this is Watchers Weekend.

Here's an important article with good advice for animal lovers and another photo of Seabreeze taken during his stay at East Ridge Animal Hospital.

More fun at the summer cottage:

I'll probably do a quick check tonight and then head home and rest up for the weekend.
