There's a good chance we'll see second hatch by tomorrow morning.

The folks on the Maine Window-on-Wildlife forum have some nice s'caps and animations of the new chick - posts start here - http://www.window-on-wildlife.com/index ... 8#msg39568

Thanks JudyB! Isn't that just the cutest little thang you ever saw?

Howdy Guys and Gals watching the sweet RT's

A bunch of us on EA have been following the nest, I'll see if I can muster some up to keep this thread up to date and moving. In the meantime here's the scoop

at 11:36 Ezra was on the chicklet and eggs

11:48 they were both there



4:06 BR stayed all afternoon then Ezra was back again with his punk rocker doo on



4:10 we get a look at chick #2 while #1 is being fed

Prey on the nest so far is pigeon, vole and the one looked like a rabbit leg but not sure

They are NOT naming the chicks so I'm sticking with 1 2 and 3 or Big Med and Small/Little/Lil'
