Morning, all!

What a treat, adult and 2 visits by Palmer! Glad she showed up for the early morning crew!

Lolly said...

Good morning, Paula. Yes, the early morning crew got the treat. Just can not get up that early!

Mits said...

Good TUESDAY morning everyone...have a good one:)

Lolly said...

Time to get beautiful to head out. Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone! I've been up and about - daughter is here. I have read comments... Palmer has paid a visit - we'll enjoy them while we can.
It's a little overcast this morning but don't know if we will get any rain- chances are good but I guess it really depends which way the wind blows.
I'll return as the day goes on......

Sorry about the camera problems overnight folks- the computer which hosts the camera to the web was a wee bit overtired again- restart and a few kind words and its working again- thank goodness!

Both our chicks have now taken their exciting first flights over the last 48 hours and both have done extremely well. Instinct is a wonderful thing and both chicks flew strongly, though not very far as yet. They will often perch up somewhere close by at this stage to build up the energy to return to the nest, as long flights are still a bit beyond them- those wing muscles need a lot of conditioning.

The first chick to fly is the older and seems more confident at this stage, whereas the younger is more tentative, but this is nothing to worry about. Both have returned safely to the nest for feeding last night so there is nothing wrong with their homing instinct!

Greetings from Voitto Pulkkinen: Tagging is planed 17.7.2010, in the evening. What time, that will be solved later!.....

I can't believe they are letting them get near this nest again:(

Mema Jo said...

I'll hold my breath until the banding is over.... Hope it isn't the same team of banders! We sure don't need a repeat!

Mits said...

yeah thought the same thing, Jo

07/13/10:
We're seeing more flapping activity from our young birds as they build up their wing muscles.

As a reminder, we recently updated our Osprey Web Log. And our Osprey Chick-Naming Contest is open until July 17.

Mema Jo said...

Didn't submit any names for the chicks I'm wondering what they'll pick.

Mema Jo said...

Lynne - If I lived close by I would certainly have my great grand kids over at Irvine Nature Center. I follow it daily on FB and they would love it!
They are so outdoorsy to begin with.
