ROOFING!
June 8, 2021 dawn
6 am one jumped to outer perch, then launched onto the roof
The audience of 3 siblings and a parent observed the flappings
Oboy does he look happy! hahahaa

Lack of branchs so I guess roofing is the equivalent of branching. 8)

Male 1 laid right in the way so #2 couldnt easily come down to the roof. I imagined their chat - -

MOVE!
No!
MOVE!
No!
MOVE!
No!

Parent brot food to rooftop juvie.

The other 3 screamed. I could *almost* hear them!

2 juvies on the roof!
June 9, 2021
Today we will likely see 3 or all 4 on roof.
Monkey see monkey do do

3 pm June 8 Male #2 exits box to perch and flaps away vigorously

6.30 pm The 2nd juvie just jumped over the one on the roof!
#2 is larger, I am thinking its a female

Really fun to watch this cam at this stage!

My notes, pics on RRP

I've tried to read tags - I cant

* Note to the cat
perch to roof is just a hop - not flying :teehee:

Odd how the 4th juvie at several cams is nearly impossible to see

FLEDGE
June 10 Thanks cat ....
This pic leaves more questions than answers?
Was #4 just behind the box?
Has it fledged - did it fly up from below?

I scrolled back - it looks like one fledged.
It flew back up to the roof and joined its siblings.

I don't know where the other 2 are: maybe there are behind the box because its shady there. We've got one on top of the box and one inside the box.

Yes I saw one take her prey and run behind the box
must be shady back there
one lays flat down inside - hard to see

Thank OAS! :10sum:

I was watching the only visible one just now, and she went to the roof and then immediately went behind the box. I suspected that part or all of her siblings were behind the box!
