They have a history of fledging by accident here. The top of the ledge, I believe, is metal so they get no traction while its raining or gusts of wind.

:dancegirl: Sally, in addition to what sky explained above VDWR explained why they pen the chicks in the last 2 paragraphs of their update yesterday.

Sorry it has taken me so long...

From the morning feed (I have no clue what has happened since...been trying to check ALL the USA cams!!)


Image

Image

Image

Red with a big bite...he went to the box to eat it. (at least I think that's red)

Image

Image

Image

Pay attention to this large piece.

Image

Feed over...

Image

...and the fun began...

Not sure who, but chick comes from the box and goes for the chunk of food..and the battle begins.


Image

Image

Goes after it with his (or her) foot..

Image

Image

Image

Grabs it with beak

Image

Chick #2 has hold of #1 and won't let go.

Image

Image

Image

chick #1 actually falls down because #2 won't let go..Orange girl rushes in hoping to snag the piece...

Image

#1 manages to hang on...and makes it to the box in semi peace...

:buzzybee: Never did catch a feed here today nor parent. Right now can see two on the lip and the others must be behind them. Earlier today all I saw were the 4 milling about the nest and pen or standing and looking as if for parents or they may have been out of sight of the cam at that time, but they could see a parent.

Thought I'd circle back around to parent names again.

So far we have:

    Chubba (swinwk)
    Chetta (swinwk)
    Rich (Beth)
    Mona (Beth)
    Ozzie (Catwoman)
    Harriet (Catwoman)


All great suggestions!!! I'll throw in my 2 cents

    Della (mom hatched in Delaware) or
    Barb (after our Richmond native Member)


Did I miss any suggestions?
