These two are pulling at prey in the box. Might have been left there on purpose, but it wasn't long before a parent came in to feed them.

Later, FC brings in some fresh prey to feed the chicks, but Clara is like, hold on there buster.

Later he comes back and watches his sleeping chicks. Prior to that he showed some concern for that egg in there, looking at it and even tried to roll/tuck it.

Then it gets too busy for FC.

Why did daddy leave?

I guess this one couldn't wait one more day.

Honey, did you know that one of our babies is out of the box?

Oh, geez--they are already old enough to leave the box? :girlcrazy:

Love your family pictures, ljames! :flirty:

Parent came in with food and chick made it back in the box. :cheer

ljames · **Posted:** Mon Apr 22, 2013 9:55 pm

Back out again.

Good to see the chick back in the box. Wasn't there a problem for the first chick out last year because it had trouble getting back in? Or I could be thinking of Richmond. Well, they're mobile now, so it will be harder to keep an eye on them. :teehee:

Banding starting shortly:

Poor babies . Two of them went running to the corner already.

ljames · **Posted:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 10:13 am

Oh yeah, parents are flying around like crazy, well at least one of them.

ljames · **Posted:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 10:26 am

Both parents are there now for sure and they are in attack mode. I hate they get so upset.

ljames · **Posted:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 10:27 am

I think that he just got what was left of the egg out of the box.

FC landing on box...

What a good Papa!

One falcon on the wall watching. I think he took a picture of it. He then appeared to be measuring the nestbox.

We should have a caption contest on what the other 2 who are watching their sibling get banding are saying!

ljames · **Posted:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 10:34 am

He is working on one of them. Look at the other two looking on in the background.

My local news station is doing a piece on the banding right now!

We should know before 9AM what they've got!

On KTVU, Fox local affiliate.

Wow, they were showing the live feed. Nothing like watching it on my computer, then seeing the same picture on TV!
