There's a rather large bird that keeps flying past the field of view......if it's a Falcon, that would be rather epic! Someone keep one eye on that and maybe look to post in the party thread.

It's more likely to be a pelican or some other sea bird.  The Cape is pretty much... well 'crawling' is the wrong phrase, but there are lot of them around - they usually dramatically take to the wing at ignition.

All quite quiet.  Just waiting for the pad to rotate into the Station's plane.

I'm sticking with NASA TV, so if people want to add shots of SpaceX's webcast, please do.

Lori Garver interview. Nothing worth quoting....but to be fair, she got the message across really well.
