HI Birdsie! Hi Will!!

gosh I don't feel as if I've come up for air all afternoon.. It's sure nice to see you both. Thanks for the video Will! you always do a great job... I will check it out later.

I love that beak to beak shot birdsie... I think it helps us to get to know them a bit better when we catch moments like that.

Whoossshhh.... That youtube thing took longer than I thought it would. I know there was just another feeding but I didn't get any s'caps. Judging by the feathers in the nest I'm guessing pigeon.


I keep forgetting that in this thread we can be more relaxed than in the Sidney Observers thread....

I especially wanted to say 'congratulations to jtw' for witnessing her first live hatching! I am SO glad you hung around even though I said ot was often at least 24 hours between hatches!

jtw, I think you need an Avatar ( picture) to go under your name. It's Very Easy to do. I am going to send you a PM (personal message) about how to proceed...So Look at the VERY top of any page just under the Green top banner for a notice that you have a PM and click on it. (Just in case you aren't sure what to do... if you are, so much the better.)

Hey Terry, Thanks for the offer of help. (I'm glad you told me an Avatar is a photo because I wouldn't have known). But it makes me feel welcome. I'll look at setting it up a bit later.

I was a little unsure about joining the discussion and observations at first. But everyone's been great. I should have known that a group of people who get off on patiently watching a couple of eggs turn into little baby chicks would be very cool!

Video: Madame Feeds Her Two Baby Eaglets, Then Tucks Them In

Hi Beans!! Aren't they sweet! Thanks for the Video I will watch yours later too, when I watch Will's.

I think I have a GAzillion s'caps.... Must do some culling and deleting one of these days soon!!

There's Lots of food on the nest today! I think pigeon is the preferred choice.


I'm out now for a while... must eat and stretch the legs!

7:00PM OR not.. feeding underway

one chick is eating the other is submissive. --- or maybe just can't get turned around! he made it!
