I will get on and do it soon Lynnrose. When I made that HD movie the other day, my processors were getting hot, so I put another 120 mm fan on the radiator. So now I have a pull and push fans blasting air through and its improved cooling. Making lower quality clips wont be any bother, its just sorting them through to keep the movies interesting.

The big ones legs are stronger now and they can walk about. Its only the baby who still a bit wobbly. The big ones sometimes sit on the side of the box and clamp on when testing their wings. That way they can get up to full power without going anywhere. They are spending more time out of the box and out of camera view. They have got more room to run about and stretch their wings. The baby has been looking over, but hasn't tried to get out yet. You wouldn't think he's only 4 days younger than the oldest. I think the biggest one is female and the baby is male, its almost like they have paired off. When it rained the other day, the big one sheltered the little one with her wings. She hung right over him, like their mother used to do when they were all tiny. The other two hang out together and if the Uni doesn't separate them and pair them with other birds in cages, they could become a hunting pair. I don't think its unusual for Falcons to have same sex hunting pairs, until they find mates. Not that I know what the sex is of any of the birds, I was only going by the mothering instinct of the big one and the middle ones look like twins. I think there are more females than males hatch; but as they only take one mate for life, it makes slow breeding and has caused the decline. You could see a hunting pair in your area, but theres a good chance they are sisters.

The little one started running around yesterday. Last night I was on the phone and forgot I was filming, I took 1.7 gig of an empty box. The big one gets up on the ledge and helps mum pluck the dinner. One of the others is getting up on the ledge as well now. Today 3 came back from running round and the big one was missing for ages, I was beginning to think she had fell off the ledge. Then she showed up just before mum landed with the dinner and helped her pluck it, just so she could get fed first.
