Actually, it might be an excellent opportunity to allow your young neighbors to learn more about bees... you might ask your beekeeper about this, and inquire whether he's willing to teach the little ones near you more about them, for both educational purposes, and to protect his/her hive.

The beekeepers I've met have always been more than willing to help educate the public.

Great news! We can relate here!

where it was injured in late March in a confrontation with an Ontario Street apartment building

Interesting choice of words... I can just picture them in a stand-off...

pf with wings out, clicking her beak...

apartment building gnashing its.... windows? fire escape ladders?

That building must have been mighty mad at the droppings to actually work up the energy to confront a pf... stupid

Thanks, Ezsha - you are way ahead of me.

You know it's all your fault! harhar

I didn't know anything about them until I read through the comments on the site you linked, and one mentioned Loch Garten.  When I googled it with web cam, I got the other results, and then noticed there weren't any UK links here...

You sent me on the web quest, and you weren't even trying! 2thumbsup

She took almost an hour for break. Smiley
563  Rochester Falcons / Rochester Falcon Discussion / Beauty 'sleep' on: 14-Apr-10, 06:12:01 AM
Here's a chronical of Beauty's night - I'm amazed how little sleep she actually did get last night!

She got up off the eggs quite a lot through the late evening, to either turn, or just take a break.
(movie) 9:41 (turn)
(movie) 10:49 (12 min.)
(movie) 11:15 (turn)

11:31 - 12:21 (50 min. standing)

(movie) 12:28 (turn)

Sleep, where she actually tucked her head under her wing, aka TUCK NAP (TN) 12:47 (10 min.)
and again at 1:05 (6 min.)

(movie) 1:12 (turn)

TN 1:38 (33 min.)

(movie) 2:21 (turn +, 7 min.)

Sleep from about 2:35, and for most of the rest of the night until she left (a grand total of about 3 hours of 'uninterrupted' sleep!).

  (movie) (a beautiful example of a TN)

(movie) 4:07 (turn)

(movie) 4:14 (turn)

(movie) 4:34 (turn)

Leave the nest 5:24 to sit on the ledge, and Archer came in at 5:34 to egg sit.

Three UK osprey cams:
Dodd Wood
Loch Garten
Glaslyn

Here's a compilation of UK osprey sites.

And a satellite track log for two young osprey.

Enjoy!

He held out well, as she arrived at 7:45. He's taking after his grandfather!
