The tension and excitement is palpable !! Sad to report that we are now down to 5 chicks, looks like runty chick couldn't handle the constant trampling by the others. However, the remaining 5 have been very active all day long. I was convinced that the biggest 2 would make a break for it today, they have been wing flapping and jumping up to the hole constantly, and I think Freda thinks they are ready too, as she has been sitting on a branch outside and encouraging them out and both parents have been feeding them from the hole, but none of them have been brave enough to take the plunge yet !
Is this the last time we will see all 5 together ?? (I think it might be ...)
Here is Fred feeding from the hole ..
Here is all the action :
