8:53 am
The South cam stopped streaming to YouTube a few minutes ago - I sent a message to Ken and Michael.

Nice to see both of them on the nest!

Two more pictures. I think the tiny one's neck is a bit tired after all the pecking he or she had to do to get out of that egg!

Added - I posted to the HWF Facebook page (don't always remember to do that ) and I'll send an email to David Hancock.

Both cams are fine... I was just logged into both.

Thanks, Rose - I'll send a message.

North lagging.

Eggs still intact.

Thanks, DDuckies - fixed now!

N and S cams down I think the computer that sends all the feeds to YouTube is down temporarily. I've heard from the folks at Green Light Security, and someone should be back in the office in a little over an hour, and will be able to get things streaming again then. I checked a couple of the cams a...

BB youtube stream just became unavailable. Assume the cams themselves are okay as I was on the north cam when it happened. All the streams are down. I reported it, and Michael at GLS is out of the office at the moment but should be back in a little over an hour and will check on them as soon as he ...

I'm seeing a lot of glare on the South cam from the sun reflecting on the water below the nest, am logging in briefly to move it slightly.

I am out. I do love the view from these cams!

Test post - my computer time and my smartwatch say it's 10:30 eastern Added - I'm seeing what Sandy sees - they don't match: 20240413_001.jpg I don't think the forum time is something I can adjust, though I'll check, but this will probably require an email to David Hathaway. Added - I'm not seeing a...

Great closeups!

And I'm happy to see that both adults were completely ignoring the movement in the North cam!

I've added 2024 to the NCTC thread - viewtopic.php?f=44&t=445

A sad report, but the sort of unusual event that we try to document.

Thanks for your work on the site map, gemini!

I'm so sorry to hear the news - thanks for your great coverage during B17's short life, Marianne, and thanks for being here, Philippe - I'm sending good thoughts your way as well.

Fly free, little one, far beyond the sky.

On a personal note, this nest has one of the first cams I discovered after Hornby and Sidney back in 2006, and I regret that I no longer have time to follow it - there's always that "hours in the day" thing. 2023-24 was an unusual nesting season, with an outcome the is fortunately rare and unfortuna...

2023 Summary Smitty and Bella laid two eggs, on February 15 and 18. One of them hatched on March 26 at 2:14 pm - observers think the second one, though either is possible based on the dates (36 days if the second, 39 days if the first). Chick E7 was named Jefferson, and fledged on June 15 at 81 day...
