Also thank you bev for your notes on Xavier, I wasn't sure if he was a little scared of the chicks.
I do have a picture of two chicks resting their heads on the ledge :15heartbeat:

Diamond arrives with prey, I am not sure what type of bird it is. Rainbow Lorikeet?

Chicks backing up as Diamond comes in.

Diamond must have left the prey to the chicks.

Such great videos! Can you imagine if we had sound!? Seems like they're always chirping!
Won't be long now...

(Xavier is so adorable - love him hopping in on the ledge and out and around about! :leafwirl:

I'm thinking an Eastern Rosella (Rainbow Lorikeets don't have any white feathers, but this one looks as if it had white around the face/neck)

Well you won't see our peregrines eating any, Shepherd, never fear. There are no wild macaws in Australia!

A random selection of pictures today 8th Nov.
This is Xavier making a flying visit.

Sleeping along the ledge.

Chick/s doing lots of wing exercise, one good way to get rid of the fluff.

Having a nap.

Feeding on some scraps of prey a leg and foot, while the other two chicks are preening.

Lots of moving around and more wing stretching. Love the patterns under its wing.

Lol was that Xavier that flashed by? :upwave:
