Apparently he flew from NB roof to small wall bump this morning. It's on the Rfalconcam Facebook page.

Seems like there is small improvement everyday. And he knows to stay put for now.

I just watched him flapping like crazy, & this time he had both wings up equally, so I'm really hopeful he's improving! :loveshow:

It is such a joy to watch this cam! This is such a great family unit, & I imagine that the kids learn this & their nests are the same way! :flirty:

Did you ever get to see the Rochester Falcons when you visited a while ago?

I saw Beauty (on cam 1)! It was of course too early for the kids to be out, but she was up there most of the time we were there! :clap:

Went to see the spots I saw mentioned in relation to the nestbox, like the Broad Street Bridge & the river. I was hoping DC would make an appearance, but he didn't.

Hubby took some pictures, but he wants to tweak them a bit before I post them, but of course now they're yesterday's news! :teehee:

I'm so glad you got to see Beauty at least! Watcher's Weekend is coming up next weekend! I don't know how far away you are, but it should be a fun day on Saturday. The kids will be active and there's usually a lot of good eats that everyone brings. Cornhill Festival is that weekend also so some people go over for a while to that. Anyone who wants to is welcome to come and you get to meet people you know on here and the Forum! :egg19:

That sounds great Kris, but I'm in south-central PA so its about a 6-hour drive to get there. Probably not this year... :egg15:

That's quite a drive for you but you'll be able to see pics from the weekend that'll be posted, I'm sure. We're up in the air too because Bill has to have a non-invasive heart procedure possibly this coming week so, if he has it, it'll depend on how he feels.

Sounds like the party's already started in Rochester...sure hope the kids make it home before fireworks!!!

The girls are in the box with Beauty and the boys tucked in the boy cave, lots of screaming. They're not happy campers. The finale is really freaking them out.

I think it's over, poor kids.

I was afraid one of the girls was going to leave! Luckily, Beauty came to be with them..like she usually does! :egg19:

catwoman · **Posted:** Sat Jul 05, 2014 12:00 am

So glad the kids made it through red, white & boom all right. I didn't realize that Beauty normally keeps her kids company when the booming is happening, but she's a great mom so I shouldn't be surprised. :clap:

Now I need to see if everything is OK with the Harrisburg kids.

Kris, I hope everything goes well with your husband during his procedure.

Nettie arrives (I think its Nettie) and chases Mom away...then she proceeds to check on Nor'easter..

Thanks for the video! That's his babysitter, Nettie, our mother hen. She spends a lot of time with Nor'e while the other 2 are doing their thing. This injury is so heartbreaking..darn wind just slammed him into the building when he was trying to land and he was such a good little flier! He's trying so hard, takes short flights around the NB area but the wing just isn't right. I just wish he'd come to the ground so someone could look at him. The watchers did say there was some talon tagging this AM between Mercury and Tesh! We're going for an evening watch tonight..can't wait!

Cute video, SGB! I'm so glad to see little Nor'easter is doing better!

Every year she goes in to protect them from those bad fireworks..it's so sweet.
Thanks for thinking of Bill. His heart went into afib in April, just before our DC trip, and he has to be cardioverted, which might be this week if his INR is where they want it and if they can schedule it..lots of ifs..he just wants it over with and, hopefully, the rhythm goes back to normal.

I now have the pictures we took in Rochester on this computer, so I'm going to post them in Member Photography & I'll post the link here when I'm finished.
