Yes. San Jose is at 7:30AM PT. Historically, SF has been closer to 12PM PT, but I don't think a specific time has been confirmed for SF at this point.

These 3 all look the same size. I'm guessing 2 boys and 1 girl?

Beginning of the end....

One out of the box. This always saddens me because it means we are that much closer to fledging....

The kids just had a HUGE meal. The prey was almost as large as Lil or larger..Really big.

Here's their evening protrait.

Post banding

In somewhat of a defensive posture. I guess they think if they duck, maybe the big thing won't see them.

Thanks for getting the pictures mwplay. I knew that I would be away at the time. Boy they sure are pitiful looking right now. I watched this one last year and I kinda thought that there were alot of people there. I think it would help if the parents came in too to comfort them like EC did or maybe they already have and I missed it.

I left right after I posted the last set of pictures, so had not seen if a parent actually went into the nest area, but someone was on the ledge when I left.

All the flying pictures were taken after everyone had left. I think what contributed to the issue was someone was on the roof on the building across the street. I would not want to be them. With the way both parents were making VERY CLOSE passes (and honestly, I couldn't click fast enough and if I did, my computer didn't respond fast enough to get pictures), I'm surprised they didn't get nailed by one of the adults. I thought in the past, building security made sure people stayed off the roof during nesting. Maybe they saw people on the ledge and the birds freaking out so they wanted to see what was going on?

Snack Time - Outside the box

Ok, glad you saw a snack. Saw the parent in the box and the little chicks altogether over there on the side. Yeah, I saw those two people over there on that roof. :egg16:
