Do I hear half a dozen. :2thumbsup:

Roughly speaking, then, the time that our Flickers take for incubation is from eleven to twelve days

Based on that we should start seeing baby flickers on the 11th or 12th of June.

The camera view for the Stellers has been changed. The babies out grew the nest cam and it was difficult to see them as they are so big now.

It contributed - used 5 gig of bandwidth in one day.
Some major improvements to our livecam ability will be taking place soon.


Based on last years stellers nest the babies should fledge the nest approximately June 16.

I'd like to take this opportunity to remind all of you that enjoy the technology so much that this would be a good time to kick down some cash to help defray what surely must be an expensive undertaking.  So if you haven't already- make a donation!  Even just a few bucks would probably be welcomed.

The babies sure look like they are getting ready - standing on the edge of the nest, flexing their wings.... :laugh:

Wrightwood, are you going to make a video like you did last year?  This has, once again, been so fascinating!  :2thumbsup:

It almost looks like the two left in the nest are watching the one that flew the coop already!

One is down or should I say up.
The 1st guy hopped on the roof of the house, made a flight to the telephone line, flew up higher in a large pine tree while mom and dad tried to coax him/her down.

The other two are still holding tight while mom and dad are getting #1 home

Photos pending.....
