If we're making our Christmas list for next year, then in addition to IR, I would like the lower ledge cam to be a PTZ cam!!!! AND I want a sun awning over the front of the box AND I want a shallow bird bath AND I want the front lip of the box to be raised a couple of inches so we don't have to sit next year, yelling at the screen for the parents to not roll the eggs out the door.....LOL

feed going on right now...can't see a thing..

few pics from the past 1 1/2 hrs..

Just when I think I have the girls figured out, I don't..whomever this is (and I think Hoshi..but, at this point, I'm not sure) is stalking Dart.

She goes after him and he comes in..

Spark makes the mistake of coming in the box and is cornered by one of the girls..

Then another break in action and one of the girls comes in...I just can't make out the bands...I think Hoshi

Finally...this is Blaze...and boy is her plumage different from Hoshi's...WOW..which makes all the female pics above are of Hoshi..

Right now there's 1 in the box, 1 on the porch and 1 no clue..

Spark arrives with the snack...and waits...and waits...and waits..(that's probably too many waits)

I think he decides he'll go do the feed..

When in swoops Ms D

She ponders for few, then heads to the lower ledge

Where she calls...and calls...and the kids just stare at her down at the box. She eventually goes to them..

Thank you

Ya know, the plumage is really throwing me off. I'm so used to seeing the males "brown up" first (Oh no you didn't just poop on her, did you Dart?) Maybe because Dart is 3 days younger than Hoshi

WAS DART THE LAST ONE IN AND NOW LAYING DOWN AGAINST WALL?
