Stopped by the Transamerica Building this morning (approx. 9am), and saw nothing - (BUT, I forgot my camera and binoculars! :girlcrazy: ...I did remember my "possible fledge box >>> with sheets, gloves, and nec. phone numbers!)
Watched for approx. 1/2 hour... I did see a possibility across the street on the ledge of the roof, but can't be sure. That bird never flew - just sat there perched, looking around.

Oh well, maybe next time!

Yes, Shep, definitely too young.... I keep the box in the car just in case I see an "emergency" during my travels. It usually has my binoculars and camera in there!

Sonday, June 3
I saw all 4 in afternoon - Very windy in morning
The biggest has feathered out and shaken the fluff and
flown up and has run along the bridge
So if she fledges later this week I wont be shocked

Adorable!
3:06pm
One of the cutie pies was sunbathing on the ledge (so comfy... at first I thought it was prey!). Another was running back and forth across the length of the roof! When the sunbathing one saw the runner, s/he stood up quickly as if to say, "No, I was NOT snoozing, I was observing!
I wish this cam had sound - I can just imagine how loud that little scene was!
(These 2 had a lot of downyish feathers still.)

3 up
Jun 5, 2018
All 4 kids still there
7 am 2 up on the bridge, then #3 the largest, joined them briefly, then ran along the bridge.
By the weekend at least one may be gone. They hear the Call of the Wild.
The 4th was playing down on the roof
7.25 am WHOA! #2 just flew - I think left down the bridge. and then there was 1

I took several snips cuz they may be gone soon
I've tried to post some here but you have a size limit

Good pics sky - could be the last of all 4

June 7, 2018
At dawn I saw all 4
One flew from the curb near cam all the way up on top of bridge, then flapped along the bridge out of sight. That one is likely to fledge - or fludge - today or this week. He/she is ready.
Happy sad time seeing them leave. Normal. Healthy.

:o 5.27 am OMG! Did they go?? It was on the bridge and flew up - I dunno if gone or just further down bridge

I've been on and off since approx. 8am; I've only seen two: one snoozing (observing) under the 'bridge/ledge' and one was running back and forth on the ledge, flapping, jumping off, jumping up, repeat. This runner had very few 'baby' feathers!

I only had a few minutes to check the DVR this morning, but there are 3 in this pic. Only thing I can remember is that I took this prior to noon...what time on the DVR? No clue...

A FLEDGE and a FLUDGE
June 8, 2018 Then there were 2
I watched one of the kids FLYING and knew he'd fledge - or fludge - very soon, so if he has left, he was ready - he is fine.

flying on bridge
https://youtu.be/SNyjLdxLGCk

He fledged June 7 - very intentional- NOT a fludge.
He looked, bobbing his head, calculating, aimed - and jumped
His flight was strong toward his target
https://youtu.be/7VdwHpOmX5o

Juvie follows Dad - fledge or fludge?
https://youtu.be/065f_brtqKc

Just my guess
Dad may have tried to tempt #2 to the same place the first had landed. Parents know when their kids are ready and encourage the next time.
Explore had these videos so I posted here and RRP

Thanks for posting the Explore vids!!

2 currently on cam and all 3 were there about 2 and 1/2 hrs ago (it was still dark)...no time to scour the DVR to try to find #3..
