Good evening Hornby!

Elizabeth seems to be spending quite a bit of time alone on the nest lately. Wonder if she's made a mess of her room yet? I'm surprised Ma hasn't shown up to tidy up a bit.

Anyway, here she is alone again, but ain't she sitting purty?

Hello Nightowl, and Bev! Thanks for the great s'caps today. I have been out celebrating my wedding anniversary with my husband, and it is great to check in to see s'caps of Elizabeth scaring the pants off us by flopping those big wings so close to the edge of the nest! Yikes!!

I was just thinking, since the cam is now at this angle, we won't see if Elizabeth branches/hops down the runway. That is where they usually practice to when they branch at this nest. But we will be able to see her jumping up on the CU cam and stump!

Where oh where is Elizabeth???


Nightfall is approaching.

Hey Jill!

Happy anniversary! *ahem* I only made it to 8.

I think the little daredevil is trying to give us all heart failure!

OK, here's something new. These are either otters or seals...I dunno...but they were jumping and frolicking their way to shore.



OK, even though my hair is still wet, it's past my bedtime, so...

Night Elizabeth...Night Ma and Pa...wherever you are!

Hornby Weather

Good morning Hornby!

I did get a s'cap of the ship of the evening last night...but went to bed before I posted it.

The Island Princess passing behind the nest...



Now for today.

The cam is still on night vision. I mean, c'mon it's only a little after 4:30AM there. Anyway, there's a parent on the balcony. See just to the left of the WA struts?



Elizabeth must be sleeping in this morning.

First sunrise on the first full day of summer

Nightowl!! Those were some beautiful s'caps of the Hornby sunrise, wow!!

The little stinker is nestled down in the bowl, and in this s'cap she is repositioning herself....You can barely see her.


In this s'cap she is flapping those huge wings!

Flap, flap, and OK, more flapping. Wingersizing them there wings!!

There is someone banging on a wood beam or something, and you can hear a boat in the water, the outboard motor propelling it around.
