Betty said that they look like kids in a choir.

Sure would be nice if there was sound on this cam. I guess that's pretty expensive. We are SO lucky in Harrisburg to have sound.

The children have white choir robes in our church! And the chicks are children!! :teehee: Sorry for the off topic here!

At least they are dry on this very rainy morning. In the 50's right now.

Breakfast is served to "the kids in the choir," as Betty would say.

Great catch of both Red Girl and CJ in the box, Ethel. I saw Red Girl doing a feeding earlier this morning.

Just watched RG do a feeding. The crops on the chicks look completely stuffed!

I've been busy trying to keep up with kestrel news, but I managed to get one picture of the feeding about 10 minutes ago.

Fresh pigeon, mourning dove and red-bellied woopecker feathers, plus a dead ruddy duck on the garage roof across the street from the box. Wasted, I'm afraid.

One of the adult falcons was just on the box ledge, looking in.

Ruddy Duck? Wow, that would be a pretty good load for a falcon. I suppose Red Girl would be responsible for that, although maybe CJ could handle one if he didn't have to carry it very far. Red Girl is feeding the chicks now.

It looks like a Ruddy Duck doesn't weigh that much more than a Cooper's Hawk so it very well could have been CJ! :)
What a shame it went to waste though.

Quite the varied falcon diet, n'est-ce pas?

I just got home and would have been in a panic if I saw this first.

But fortunately, I saw this right before.

Obviously, those chicks are really getting around now!
