The cars look pretty stationary and I'm suspecting that every owner knows that she could make the leap at any moment.  I LIKE the Ledge!  Lots of room for her to run around - not quite Playpen, but it's a good ledge!

Hi all. Just so you know, that camera has quite serious depth of field issues. Objects are MUCH farther away than they appear! The traffic you're seeing is actually two parking lots away from the building. Granted, there's still a driveway/parking lot underneath Harlequin's perch, but there isn't quite as much traffic in our little family's building.

Anyway, just back from fledge watch training and Mark Nash is pretty confident she'll follow the flight paths of her parents, so she'll more than likely be flying at...well...at me! Smiley

We'll be starting watches on Friday nights and I'm quite excited that I may be able to keep a walkie-talkie at my desk!  Grin

So glad you all had the training and Mark is awesome!!!!  If any of you have cameras with you also, we would happily look at pictures Wink

You all will do super, Kat!!!

Wow, that camera is deceiving, I thought the parking was right under her. So many cars, especially at lunch time. Well Kat, your official, way to go. Mark is the best at what he does and you were shown falcon watching 101.  Good luck and I hope no rescues to come and she will fly as well as mom and dad.

Objects are closer than they appear when flying towards you!!

Is she sleeping on another ledge to the left?  snore sleepy

Mark is pretty amazing! And yes...hoping not to have to rescue at all!

We just had feeding time and now you can see Quest on the camera. I keep e-mailing our man Scott to move the camera, but he may not be at his desk right now.

  Oh, goodness, Harlie, be careful, sweet one!  This is as nervewracking as seeing it in person scared blue



I KNOW!!! I can't stand it!!!! Kinda like watching a spooky movie with your eyes closed - but squinting just in case you want to see something... or not!!!!

Oh wow, I did not realize that she had been
wandering so far from the nest box.  Glad to hear that a lot
of you have had training from Mark.  Right?

Harlie just sprinted on the ledge though so she may not be visible unless she comes back
