7:40.....BR digs in



........

@ 8:02 Ez was there, then gone

leeeeeeeg!!! great job my Tx! so that was feeding 6 for today

I got one shot after the feed when I peeked in clearly showing somebody ate well enough



but I missed EZ's short visit so no shot there

8:24 BR is 'trying' to brood but it's hopeless I think now. At least one must be under there though. The other is saying "how 'bout me?"



8:33 yeah ok prove me wrong



thanks so much for another terrific day hawks, hawklets and GF's See ya'll tomorrow, hope they aren't flying away by then

DAILY SUMMARY

Brooding and Nest Times - Brooding is all but impossible now, BR tries though. It's much nicer so they were given room to grow and practice when winds had calmed and sun was out
Prey items delivered - BR 2 squirrels and mystery white prey and another mystery prey, EZ 5!!! chipmunks
Nesting materials brought - none seen
Feedings - 6 - 1 of them by EZ
Weather - clear, sunny, windy and warming to 62 degrees
Behavioral and Physical Report - pin feather growth on wing edges is really sprouting and tail pattern starting to show

Intake and output - good
Milestones - one chick was asleep head tucked on back under wing like an adult. Two were seen biting and pulling on sticks and they are much more alert to surroundings
