The chicks are looking good; they have such great parents.

Little Spark is so much smaller than his sisters:

Those are some mighty big wings! Don't chicks here usually go outside the box right after banding? They seem to be holding tight.

I was thinking the same thing, Barb. Usually, once they're banded, you seldom see all of them together because they're wandering all over the ledge!

All three chicks are still at the nest, but it won't be long before they fledge:
