Yesterday a very difficult decision was made to intervene and put the smallest chick back in the nest . This was done by a professional schedule 1 ringer who has the authority to approach the nest of a schedule 1 bird. It had already been out of the nest the day before and got back in on its own .Today it has left the nest again and unfortunately it is fairly obvious that it is not right . For the moment it is off camera . There will be no intervention this time and nature will follow its course. We will be monitoring the other two carefully.
