I missed it too. boo hoo. Watching the video was kind of anti-climatic but I am grateful for it just the same.

Lynn posted the link to Bea's takeoff...... here is Jay's. He didn't take long to follow sis's lead. It was so precious watching him follow her and you had this feeling he was already missing her and that motivated him to let go of the nest and fly.

I still have the live cam open. It is nice to listen to all the chattering that goes on sometimes. I am guessing it is Phoebe and the kids buzzy around. Sometimes you can tell by the wing sounds that they are really near the camera. Hoping I might see them fly in front of the camera.

Its been a wonderful journey watching the miracle of nature up close and personal. Its been fun watching their progress with all of you. I think I am addicted and may find another stream to watch.
