We're up! Live on 12/17/2005

We're up live, with the all-new KestrelCam.  Of course, my external camera *immediately* started messing up, so I'll have to fix that tomorrow.  The internal ones are working fine, though (although I may have to swap power supplies to get enough juice to the color one to make sure it's bright enough).

One of the advantages of living at KestrelCam Control is having audio this year...it's surprising how much noise there is out there at night...dogs barking, cars on the street, etc.  Considering that these birds are nesting in cavities wherein it is nearly pitch black, all of these noises must induce some pretty significant level of stress.
