Falcon Babies Are Back

The Indy Falcons have hatched a group of babies in a special
built nest in a downtown building by our DNR .:)

Check them out on the Falcon Cam:

It's dark now - can't wait until your morning so I can look again :)

I love projects like this as it gives hope that man and nature can co-exist in the city.

~bump~ I can see the chicks :)

Liz, I've forwarded this to some friends and I think half the country is watching!

That's so awesome!! I can't wait until the sun comes up so I can see!

Oh they are so adorable!!! :D

I've been to that square before. :) Now I'll have to remember to look UP next time I visit. :D

I've had the Falcon cam up all day at work. The pics change
every two minutes, so I've just been checking in on the chicks
every so often. There have been some good ones of them being
fed by momma falcon.

In a few weeks they should be really moving all around the nest
box & checking out the ledge. :eek:

She's feeding right now :)

It's been a cloudy/rainy morning, but the sun is coming out now.
Looks like these chicks are looking right into the camera.:D

The four baby chicks are getting huge.:D They are said to
be each the size of a football. They are also losing all the baby
white fuzz & growing adult feathers.:D

the camera just updated and it looks like a little fuzzy bottom blocking half of the camera while a little chickey in the background is fussin!!:) :D :D

OMG, one of the chicks is sitting up on the ledge.:eek:
I wish their momma would come back to check on them.

I know, Liz, I checked in this morning and there was a little kamikaze chick on the ledge - noooooooo, don't jump! :)

Only last Friday they were little white fluffballs and now they are ready to sample the adult world :)
