Great news about the hatch here today! :D

"Callie" was confirmed in mid April as the long time resident female, via her leg band ID.

According to the website, 1 of the chicks fledged last evening & 2 fledged early this morning. Apparently they are all doing well. Although they were banded a few weeks ago, I haven't heard or read anywhere if they are males or females. :-\

Chicks were just fed here and are now flopped in individual corners of the nestbox. Can only see 1 chick at the moment. And boy, does some birdie need to do some "house cleaning"! :-X

Webcam view has been switched back to the closer view. :D 3 chicks being fed now & 1 lonely unhatched egg.

I caught the end of Callie feeding the three fluffies. :)
