Way OT But SOOOOO Cool

This is SO cool, Nanci! Thanks for sharing!
I have another site where I watch a pair Peregrine Falcons who hatch and raise their babies every year. I just checked and it looks like the eggs are there!
It's not a live feed like your site (it reloads the pics every few minutes), but it's still fun to watch. You can see it at:

That's an awesome site! Thx for sharing. I wonder how they got the camera up there in the first place?

Milly sounds like a really sweet pigeon. I like the way he believes in sharing the nesting duties. Now if all men were the same!

Re the ride, so how many kms do you think you'll end up doing in the 40 hours, and also how many people participate in the ride? It sounds very adventurous.

I will be riding 374 miles, or more if I have any cue sheet reading errors! I hope to not have to use the entire 40 hours.

For the 400k ride, there were about 20 or 25 people. I'm sure there will be less. I don't think there will be many drop-outs at this stage, but just people who are doing the 600k someplace else.

I have everyone at work hooked on the nesting eagles now. We even got to see one fly away and the other come take over!!!

I think Hornby Island is in British Columbia.

Nanci, thanks for the 411. I'm glad you'll be getting some sleep. I know how clumsy I become when I've been up for 24 hours, and how my judgement becomes slow and sometimes distorted. I was a bit worried about you riding a bike with that level of fatigue. Very much looking forward to the ride report!

Looks like it's getting windy!

Nanci was correct - Hornby Island is in BC:
