Bev, something that occurs to me about the skimpy feeding schedule is that there is a hawk in the area. I've read before that that can interrupt feeding of falcon chicks because the parents don't want to attract attention to the nestbox because of predators. We lost a chick some years ago in Harrisburg to a hawk.

Have a good trip, Bev! I'm back from vacation so I'll try to help watch, but my car was totaled just before vacation, so I have to spend time looking for another one.

Well here is to good things now. After yesterday , which I found hard, I want to be positive. this has always been a great site for chicks and good feedings. With different male , all things change. But it is one of the most natural sites we have.

I found yesterday hard becasue I hated to see this nice family split up. The kids all cuddled the little one and they seem confused as to when their siblings were coming back, but today is a new day. New beginnings.

I hope to come home to great things. will be watching till I leave

Thanks for the ground report, bev. It's always nice when you can see what's going on in person, and I know it relieved your mind.

Have a good trip.

The chicks are moving about, still no sign of a parent or food. It is hard to see clearly on this cam at this time of day because of the sun slant in the nestbox. I will watch as much as I can today as we are still worried about the situation; it is possible that the female is being courted by this new male, and if so, she may not be as focussed on her chicks as she should be.

One of the chicks has his mouth open, it looks like he is calling out repeatedly. If mom is close by, I hope she gets going.

Thank goodness she is there. I can't tell if she is feeding them because she again has her back to us, but I am sure she is.

Their crops are pretty full, and they are looking alot more lively now. I think they could eat more, so I hope mom doesn't wait hours to return with more food.

nice to see full crops. :egg17: :egg17: Just got home

this male just does not get it. In my opinion, something happened around JUne16th, when I look back. But we will keep positive.

I leave in an hour and a half and am packing. so far behind :egg9: :egg9:

but will watch when I can up to then. I hope she fills them right up when she feeds.

thanks Elaine and Susan :egg17: :egg17:
