Dad pays a visit
Dad went to see what was happening and got sent away!
Mum takes over!
Mum does not leave him in charge for very long . He did do a very safe and careful job ….but don’t leave him in chage for too long!
Dad’s in control!
Dad takes over and gets to look after them for the first time .She refused to let him sit on them the first time at five A M .
Second chick!
At first light there were two chicks. Picture to follow.
First Chick
The first chick is finally here below is an image …..not the best I’m afraid .However the Chick can clearly be heard on the webcam. Well done !
No chicks only eggs as they pair do a changeover
At 9.16 a changeover allowed a glimpse of the eggs – no chicks yet!
Still nothing……but four eggs!
Got to be soon now!
Still 4 eggs
After a great deal of agitation and noise Mum got off the eggs and left the nest at 2.30 this afternoon. She returned a few minutes later and settled to brood again.
Expectant in the sun!
It’s turned in to a beautiful sunny day and if all goes to plan we will in the next couple of days see our first chick.
