Congrats to our non smokers!
I am just going to stick my head in the sand and hope we have Lil Dad and Niecey there until we know otherwise...I hope the camera can shed some light on the subject at some point soon.

Sure would like to come down there for a look, but never know when to be there. On the noon news today there was another extended live picture from the camera on top of 333. Right before the news broke for a commercial, some large bird flew across the field of view, and then the commercial came on. :-(

Well, maybe the cam is getting fixed. That's a shot of the Mulberry Street Bridge on the picture you posted, ljames.

Wow! Was surprised to see that on the cam. They must be working on them now. Can see the top portion of the roof of the Train Station. Nice shots of the surrounding area.

I'm getting the impression that the two cameras at the end of the ledge are working, as there are two slightly different views of the Mulberry Street Bridge. And one of the orange post. I guess we need to all be patient. Hope to get downtown at some point over the weekend. Tomorrow sounds VERY wet, though.

JUST NOW SEEING THIS, TOOK A BREAK FROM THE COMPUTER YESTERDAY. THE REASON WE HAVE THIS VIEW IS BECAUSE THE CAMERAS ARE NOT FIXED AND THEY ARE USING THE INSIDE CAMERA (THE ONE THAT SHOWS THE SCRAPE CLOSE UP) TO TRY TO GIVE US A VIEW BESIDES THE SCRAPE THAT IS ALWAYS EMPTY. I GUESS THAT WAS THE BEST THEY COULD DO FOR NOW. THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH YOU CAN DO WITH THE INSIDE CAMERA :-( NOT SURE WHAT WE WILL SEE WITH THE VIEW, BUT I GUESS THERE'S ALWAYS THAT SLIGHT CHANCE :-)

Spent about an hour downtown this morning, and this time I did NOT come up empty. I could see a falcon on top of the Carson Building while crossing the State Street Bridge. Had trouble finding a parking place, but finally got one on 4th Street. The falcon I had seen from the bridge was still there, and there was one on the stick, too. Got lucky to be able to get into the 5th Street Garage to be able to get closer. Had to wade through a small pile of snow up there to be able to see the stick. The stick falcon was facing me, and I tried SO hard to see bands, but the feathers were fluffed up all around the feet. Positive it was a male on the stick and Niecey above me on the corner of the building above the glass cubbie. Stayed up there until I was getting numb, and went over to the Amtrak Station to thaw. When I came out of the station, the stick falcon had moved out to the edge of the ledge. Then flew to the balcony railing, and I'm not sure where all. If it wasn't Lil Dad, it certainly looked like him with a real white bib and deep yellow cere. Niecey was on the ledge a couple times, on the stick, and back on the corner of the building above the cubbie. The two of them were enjoying each other as I was enjoying them. Somewhere around 11:30 they both took off in the general direction of the Capitol so I left. Would have loved to have been able to have a look at that male from inside while he was on the balcony railing. Am 99% sure the female was Niecey.

Fabulous report Jane. You saw a lot ! I'm going to be trusting that the male was Lil Dad. You certainly must have been cold, staying there that long. Thanks so much for your continued efforts.

I'M SO HAPPY TO READ THAT YOU DIDN'T COME UP EMPTY THIS TIME! I PRAY THAT WAS LIL DAD YOU SAW TOO! I'LL BE AT WORK TOMORROW, HOPING I FIND LIL DAD UP THERE ON THE POINT TOMORROW SOMETIME WHERE I CAN GET A POSSITIVE ID. THAT WOULD MAKE ME FEEL SO MUCH BETTER :-) THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS AND YOUR REPORT JANE!

THAT WING ON THE POINT LOOKS PRETTY FRESH, BUT THE OTHER ONE WAS DOWN BELOW BEFORE 6AM THIS MORNING, SO IT MUST BE FROM YESTERDAY.

Well, she's either back or still on the stick on this rainy morning.
