A GREAT BIRDING CAM!

Here is an amazing bird cam... a Great Blue heron's nest up near Cornell (Ithaca, NY)
Mama has 5 eggs! I just counted them! She stands up and stretches her legs every once in a while. Very accomodating of her.

There is a link here to their other bird cam, a red-tail hawk also sitting on her eggs, at the University. Great cams! Check them out!
And thanks, Frank... (better late than never... sigh)

Around ONtario the recovery of Peregrine Falcons is very exciting and interesting. DDT almost wiped them out. (If they would only stop using this pesticide, made in North American, in South America.)

The Peregrine Falcon has adapted to cities, nesting on high rise buildings. Here is a weblog of web cam sites. http://www.peregrinefalcon-bcaw.net/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=22

I love the bird cams too! What a lovely Blue Heron it is! Thanks for sharing the links! The heron sits there not knowing that so many people are watching!!
