Sunday's Photos

I will be working Monday and Tuesday, but hope to get to the grounds for photos during lunch each day. Sunday was a quiet day. Early in the morning, Bobbie, who had spent the night on the North Visitor Center, took a low flight out over North Temple Street, where a truck honked and she veered off to the side and landed on the grass. She was captured and both Bobbie and Sally were released onto the Beehive around 9am and stayed there until afternoon when Sally flew over to the Temple. Amelia stayed on the Temple all day. Charlie disappeared until about 2pm then reappeared on the Temple. We are not sure where he is hiding out when he flies off. There were several fly-by's by the parents trying to get the big, lazy girls to fly.
