Dana climbs - up
June 15
Dana climbed up the cliff, rested, then hopped down on roof again.
I cant believe Dana climbed to the TOP of the bluff!
He made a really BEAUTIFUL picture - donya think?
Dana really rocks! :egg11:

I see parent perched, keeping a close eye on young.

Dana fledged
June 15, 2025
Dana got off the bluff top, down to an outcrop.
He is likely much safer there!
I scrolled down the Explore blog, but couldnt tell ya HOW he got down there.

Dana flew very strongly back up to the top of the bluff again! WOO HOO!

The 2 girls are still box-bound

DAWN RECAP

Both boys fledged.
Both girls still in box.
Dana flew back to the box overnite.

We had not seen Caden for a couple days.

MUCHO KUDOS to the cam op who caught Caden! The fludgee made it from branch to cliff ledge - then flew - looks like sloppy flight.

Tucker13 note June 16, 2025
6:32 pm - Caden ( 17 ) takes flight from the ledge.

Explore got an ADORABLE video!
The fledglings play and hang atop the bluff .

Hallie takes a bird from brother Dana
She's up on the bluff & Dana lands with a bird. Hallie is pulling the bird away from Dana when Caden flew in.

Have photos on iPad. Will try and get them to computer, but so far all looks well

Bummer that I cannot get in their forum. Have always been able to

forum is improving - slowly.
I can get in some times - and post a couple - before another lockout

Pretty sure I had 4 youngsters and both adults in view. I had 3 youngsters together , and saw male and female adults.
But I am sure while looking I had 4 youngsters at various spots. 2 seem to stay together
I give up with forum. I have been a member for a few years and now as soon as I click to get onto aGSB falcons , no cigar
Too bad. I guess elitist

Even Amy may have trouble.
RRP is busy banding -
I suspect they'll fix the forum after season.
pity.
