Official 'Watch' Over

Yesterday, my son, Doug, accompanied me downtown for our volunteer dinner/social which took place on the dining patio near the birds. Afterwards, he taped me with his Flip camera while we watched flights. A couple things to note: 1) It helps to view this video full screen and at 720p because the birds are flying higher, 2) Be sure to take your motion sickness pills before viewing, 3) I need to go on a major diet or maybe cameras really do add 10 pounds. There is an almost crash at minute 5:40 but the bird does a great job of clinging to a window, and at minute 7-something there is an illegal street crossing that I would appreciate you not reporting to the police {grin}.

So in all, we saw a kid sitting on the Temple, who was either Charlie or Bobbie because its 'cap' was so dark, and a bird sitting on a high skyscraper that everyone was saying was Amelia. Then my son captured at least two kids flying, but one of them was probably Amelia because when I looked, she was gone off the sky scraper after that flight was taped. So, I am pretty sure we saw three kids last night.

The offical 'watch' on these juvies is now over. But anyone who stops by to watch flights should probably send an email to Bob of what they see, but really the kids are doing very well and there is probably no getting  hands on them anymore. They have not learned to hunt, that we can tell. My best guess is that they will be hanging around Temple Square for another week, maybe two. I am still working on getting Bob to participate in the Q&A. I may have to make an appointment at his office next week :)
