As I write this the fourth chick is emerging from its shell. Dad finally arrived with some food for Mum and we got a good look at the chicks and clearly visible was a chick fighting its way out of the egg .
Pictures to follow.
Shes brought the food back so may feed the youngsters now. Let you know soon.
On a cold wet morning with Mum doing a superb job we have a second chick!! Picture to follow.
Unfortunately he didn’t get to see his first-born as mum stayed put.
The fluff ball under Mum’s chest is a chick!!!
Not easy to take a screen shot-have to wait until she is feeding her chick, but here she is sitting on eggs and chick.
No pictures of chick as yet – just a proud parent!!
