I was just thinking the same thing :grin:

Me 3...now, that indeed would be a miracle!!! I would think that if she were hanging out at the second box, that Eve would see her...maybe not...

Eve said that Roger chased her away from the other box, so who knows where she would have taken the other baby.

Yeah I "lost" Polly for a week in the past. Maybe she's gone with a new boyfriend? :-)

I am pretty sure she dropped the baby when Roger was chasing her and when she realized what it was, because she was back on the tower in no time (less than 5 minutes), and stayed there for at least half an hour. Spirit was looking for it right after Roger came back, I followed her hoping she would lead me to it but no luck. Then when she was back in the box I tried to search where Roger was looking, he also seemed to be looking for the third baby. Unfortunately Polly flew toward the city so there is a lot of places and roofs where it could have fallen. If it was in the cemetery in the other direction it would have been easier for me... I have a very good view of the second box from my window, the baby is not there unfortunately.

At least the two remaining are doing very well! I was concerned that Polly would steal from Roger and prevent him for doing his dad duties but it's not the case, he's really good at bringing starlings and small birds and mom goes out to catch a pigeon once in a while. It usually takes her less than one hour to catch one - I think her dad Buckeye passed on the good genes ;-)

The vote is open for choosing names for our 2 babies !

Chose 2 female names then 2 male names - then it asks you for your age group, men (homme) or women (femme) and your country (Pays).

Thanks !

Eve

I can see the greeting and instructions but not the names. Am I doing something wrong?

Wizzz · **Posted:** Mon May 17, 2010 1:00 pm

You have to use firefox or the latest Internet Explorer (version 8) - if you still have Internet Explorer 6 then you might see all the choices on top of each other !

SusanE · **Posted:** Mon May 17, 2010 1:04 pm

Hmmmm, I use the latest version of Firefox, just checked again, and still no names. I wonder if anyone else is having the same problem.

Maybe click on "Suivant" - means Next :-)

That worked! Sorry for being so dense. I thought that button at the bottom was to submit my choices. Thanks, Wizzz.

YEA...I voted!!! It also works in IE 7...just so everyone knows...I loved the name choices..(and of course, I had to choose Eve for one of my female selections!! :eastergirl:

)...

Just watched a feeding here and when Spirit (?) left, I could hear wailing in the distance which reminded me of Polly in that video Wizzz posted awhile back. I wonder if she is around?

Were both adults there today??? It is very windy there and you can see feathers blowing

I voted also and chose EVe and Falco.
We could actual pick 2 names for each sex

Wizzz · **Posted:** Tue May 18, 2010 6:41 am

Yeah both adults were here but I did not see Polly...
Roger tried to feed the babies while Spirit was away, ended up eating almost everything himself :-)

the chicks were already full anyways, Spirit had fed them not too long ago...
Here's the video

Thanks for the feeding video, Wizzz! I'm glad to see that Roger got to feed them at least a little bit.

I'm worried about Polly. It seems odd that she is not around at all. Is it possible someone was so upset about her taking one of the chicks that they harmed her? I sure hope not, but it is just too weird that she is suddenly GONE.
