Boy, you are great at catching things, ljames! Thought I could hear Niecey feeding a very late meal a bit ago, but it was too dark to see. Lil Dad left the point at 8:56. Keeping late hours.

Seems like all birds are out later now. We just saw a Red Tail on Rt.95 light standard. Love seeing the ledge again.

Can anybody identify that larder item on the point this Tuesday morning? I usually don't like to think about it, but that one has me puzzled. A towhee?

I CAN'T ID ANYTHING FINCHY, TOO FAR AWAY :-(

WISHING THAT DARN LEG WASN'T HANGING THERE IN THE POINT VIEW AND THE ORANGE POLE VIEW IS COVERED WITH WEBS AND MR SPIDEY WAS OUT THERE THIS MORNING GIVING A SHOW, YUCK!

FOOD DELIVERY BY DEAR LIL DAD. HE'S SUCH A GOOD PROVIDER. NIECEY CRACKS ME UP HOW SHE SCREAMS LIKE SHE DOES WHEN HE BRINGS FOOD, LOL! SHE RAN IN THE SCRAPE WITH THE FOOD. ALL THE CHICKS SCREAMING!

NIECEY LET THE FOOD IN THE SCRAPE. THEY WERE ALL GOING AT IT. NIECEY DID SOME LOW TALK AND WENT TO THE FRONT OF THE SCRAPE LIKE SHE WAS GOING TO LEAVE. THEN SHE TURNED AROUND AND WENT BACK AND AND STARTED TO FEED THE CHICKS, ONLY FOR A MINUTE IF THAT AND THEN FLEW OFF. I THINK WITH THE PREY BECAUSE ALL THE CHICKS ARE ALL SITTING THERE LIKE WHAT HAPPENED? THEY ARE QUIET THOUGH, LOL!

It is sorry to not have the close ups, but the other views are so important now, and I like them too. Those webs are undermining all the wonderful cameras. Another part of Nature!

Aww. It gets confusing watching their ways.

Faith · **Posted:** Tue May 14, 2013 7:27 am

That dark spot next to the building in the scrape view. Is that spidey sitting there in the web?

Faith · **Posted:** Tue May 14, 2013 7:30 am

Don't see the parents, but can hear one. I know they aren't far from the ledge.

One is eating left overs by herself/himself!

I think anyone over on the Chestnut Street garage roof might be able to see at least one chick right now. Just saw Lil Dad fly past the point over toward Forum Place.

ANYONE ELSE'S CAM CUTTING IN AND OUT?

Jane · **Posted:** Tue May 14, 2013 9:50 am

Lil dad brought prey to the point a few moments ago. Niecey came over for it and took off with it. So far nothing for the chicks. Cam here is fine.

Maybe when they go out to get the chicks for banding they can take a swipe at the cameras with the broom to clear the webs?? Unless their lives would be in danger doing that. Just a thought... (and I don't have to many of those lol)

Jane · **Posted:** Tue May 14, 2013 12:36 pm

I think they usually wipe off the cameras when they're out on the ledge to get the chicks.

YES, IF THEY HAVE TIME, THEY WILL CLEAN THE CAMS, IF NOT, WE WILL HAVE TO HOPE THE LITTLE BIRDY THAT I SAW GOES UP THERE AND CLEANS ALL THE SPIDERS AWAY! BEFORE LUNCH, I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW TO SEE WHAT PEOPLE WERE WEARING, HERE IS THIS SWEET LITTLE BIRD FLYING INTO THE WINDOW I WAS AT GETTING THE SPIDERS. THEN IT CLUNG TO THE PANE FOR A BIT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, WHAT AN UGLY SPIDER! IT STAYED THERE FOR A BIT AND ATE THE SPIDER AND THEN OFF TO OTHER WINDOWS, SO CUTE!
