Very good news that one of the little ones has been located by the cam ops, and the parents!  Newman and Zooey are on the job, so I am thinking positive thoughts about survival for all.

Both parent on the look out for their young ones
Raccoon show up and Zooey and Newman both alert and dive bomb the raccoon

The raccoon stalked other fludglings in past years too
UNSUCCESSFULLY  

  I want to see some barges on the Mississippi   

ditto
barges dont jump outta the river.   

[shep]

Some tell RRP to remove the nestbox.  NOOOOO!
Between 2005 and 2012 RRP banded 25 falcons

NOPE. Dont remove the box!
I dont think a single falcon chick has been lost due to early fludge.
The young have enuf wing power to safely land -
and enuf lung power to let parents know where they are! :egg11:

I personally enjoy the view of the river and locks and barges.
Minnesota is where I grew up.

Zooey and Newman are keeping vigil.  I can hear an eyass .  Zooey has not moved from the dead tree.  Newman  is flying.

Music to my ears.

Eyass very vocal.  Like looking for a needle in a haystack for the cam ops.  That dead tree marks the spot. 

Thank you for the Mississippi shots.  No barges SHEP.

Just now cam spotted juvie in a tree
He looks good AND HAPPY
So much better off where they are now

Cam ops are great SHEP.  This is better for me because I don't have to remember to turn down the volume on my computer like last year with Chance.

shep and jaspurr--And I just watched the Empire Builder fly by! 

[jaspurr]

EBURG, I had to look the Empire Builder up on Google.  I am glad you were talking about a train.  When I first read your post I was worried that you were talking about an airplane.   

[shep]

Years ago I rode the Empire Builder to Chicago with a friend
I KNEW

[LORIDAVIS]

Good morning little ones.  May a little ray of sunshine peek through the leaves and shine on your adorable faces today.  Stay safe. 💜💜💜
May 26 group hug...
