You can see it in sky's captures above that she posted on the 29th at 12:54 that was taken on the 28th. T, I answered you at bottom of previous page.

:buzzybee: Wish they would remove the pen from the nest site and maybe show the nest area at times when nothing going on at the other buildings. Curious if we could catch some bonding between Mom and Dad and/or the juvies checking it out.

Yes, I’d like that too. I’m curious why they feel they need the pen- are the Richmond chicks accident prone, or does the ledge tend to be extra windy? I look at sites like Alma in Wisconsin- there is very little margin for a stepping error by the chicks..?

The top of the ledge is metal. It is slippery for newbies especially. They hop up and slide off sometimes or just moving about it, they lose their footing on it. Wind could be a factor too at times. There is a busy freeway nearby.

Oh- I see…. Well, anyway if it keeps the babies safe, I guess it’s a good idea….I wonder what the new male here thought when he first saw it? :sum6:

If I remember right, it took him the longest to come in after it was placed. But once he did and started feeding them through it, he was a very faithful feeder! He did great!

I see they were running a poll about what to name both the male and the female. Did they ever decide?

I seem to remember SBG posting the new names for the parents, but I have gone back to the poll page and I didn't see it. All I can remember was that is wasn't what I would have picked or I would have remembered it! :teehee:

Guess what- when I looked back at the list of names, I guess the poll is still active! I was able to vote for my choices :hapdance:

:10sum: All seen! And close up of Yellow Girl one story below the nest! Update from VDWR:

Hey T, check out the close up they obtained of the birds we saw earlier. Turns out it was Mom and Dad! :teehee: I was hoping it was the juvies. The view we could see was just too far away to discern. Really hoping that tail guard slips off!!

Mom and dad taking a rest from training the kids? Or maybe they were playing “hide and seek”…I can’t believe they forgot to take that guard off her tail- I hope it’s not very sturdy so she can rip it to shreds… :biggrin:

thanks swinwk...Juvie is still on top of BOA building...

There is also another juvie "lounging" on the red portion of the sign, far left...almost out of cam view. Pics will have to wait until tonight.

Well, darn...they both just flew off at the same time. Missed the pic...that seems to always happen when I am typing. there must be a parent with food..

Juvie just reappeared on top of BOA...don't know where it came from unless from the back or was already up there and just awoke from a nap.

Juvie currently on top of BOA, appears to have food...so, either was the faster of the two and got the food drop or its a 3rd juvie with a separate food drop. No clue.
