Bill and I went to Rochester last night and 3 of the juvies put on a spectacular show for us above Xerox for about 20 minutes, if not more! Nettie was seen perched on the communication tower during the evening so she wasn't a participant. They said she's flying very well but watchers think she's still nursing a possible sore right wing so needs time like Nor'e did. Here's some videos that Bill got..hard to track all the action but he captured it pretty well.

Hi Kris! I think Bill did an excellent job. Great videos. I love how in the second video, one is hovering over the antenna. Amazing. Must have been so fun to watch! Thank you for sharing.
They did a lot of hovering maneuvers..amazing to watch! They're doing so well..wish Nettie girl was in on it too but momma was with her. Nobody saw DC but we're sure he was around somewhere near. Watchers say he doesn't do much with the kids but does drop off food for them, which is a good thing!
He's probably hunting and trying to keep the airspace clear so the kids can have space to test those wings and skills they are learning. I think most of the time when he is reported as being seen, he's up on the tower while kids are further DT with B. I think it's funny the kids hit up the spots where Mom & Dad have cached food (base of Mercury, TSB wings, OCSR). Smart cookies!
I think the same thing happens out here. We hear of the family together, but I think Clara (San Jose), does the majority of teaching/feeding. Fernando zips around and gets knocked off by the kids, hunting and patrolling.
So glad to see videos and get reports of how they are.
