Thanks for the reports, Terry, and I'm looking forward to your videos - though I know how much time those take to process!

A couple of recent s'caps - look at how the feathers are starting to come in along the edge of her wings! love

Laf'let has been asleep most of this time. When he is awake he preens his feathers of watches the area from the bowl.
The camera branch shook a few moments ago indicating an adult may be in the tree.

ABW those photos of the chick are beautiful. From the size of his crop you likely got those soon after a feeding.

7:24 am
Laf'let is up for a poopshoot. He has a terrible time getting his balance. Falls on his beak but manages to get himself upright.

7:25 am
Laf'let wanders out of the bowl and sits with his back to the camera.
No adult seen on the nest yet this morning.

7:27 am
Adult finally arrives with breakfast.
Laf'let is getting a couple of good size pieces to eat.


7:29 am
Feeding is over. There wasn't much to this meal at all.

7:31 am
Adult is still on the nest with the chick.


7:32 am
Second adult arrives . Can't see whether or not there was more food brought in.


7:34 am
Both adults and chick are still on the nest.

7:35 am
One adult leaves.
Chick is pulling on something on the nest.
Remaining adult is calling out.




These are nice s'caps JKR -- the light on the nest is very pretty in the morning!
