June 1 - post from RRP
BLACK DOG

We banded today. We have two males and a female. Dan, the plant falcon guy, was extremely helpful and took some great pics which I will post when I get. I was reading through the comments and Dan also likes how adult male Cooper feeds Frannie. Cooper is also one of the most aggressive males I've ever seen - a spectacular flier who isn't afraid of anything...including us! <3

What kind of messages?

When I go to the XCEL cams, I keep getting the message I need to delete my cookies in order to view the cams...strange..

Once I do that, I can get the cams...go figure..

I think they worked hard to try and clean that box, contrary to public belief.

I miss not being able to get this cam.

Alcoa was first cam that proved that when these guys get too low by fledging too early , they can be guided back up bit by bit. And then for 2 years they proved it here.

what we have learned over the years :egg17:

Great Spirit Bluff

I am worried about the gnats - there seems to be a lot of them today! Also they are getting so big. What happens when they all start flappersizing? There certainly isn't enough room. I guess I am getting concerned about their safety.

2013 GSB the day they left home

They are older now that the chicks were in 2013
when they jumped / fell / fludged
and all are fine

Just in case there is another exit - they are FALCONS and will be FINE!
No windows in a cliff - lol

This is the time of year gnats get really bad - suddenly
