| Note: | 3 healthy chicks still on the nest , thankfully, after the July 4th severe weather events. All look great, feathers aren't quite up to flight standards, but it won't be long now! | ||||||
| July 26 | Ken O | 2 | N | 3 | feeding, young standing | ||
| Note: | First Chick fledged today officially. Yesterday, the first fledge hovered and landed on the railing. The chick could not figure out how to jump up over the side of the nest, so she spent 24 hours on the railing without being fed. This morning, she took off northbound and flew circuits around the nest while the other 2 chicks watched. Several minutes later, the fledge landed on the post, then jumped down to the nest. So glad to see her back and getting fed once again! | ||||||
