Looks like our girl is nearly ready to fly the nest – she’s been in the castellation and had a look at the big wide world but then thought better of it and hopped back into the safety of the nest.

As they grow bigger there is not much to do at the moment in between food so it’s always worth keeping an eye open for it. They are now getting very vocal as well and can clearly be heard from the ground.
Just waiting
A new gallery of Photographs of Mum in confusion while her chicks were being ringed. Some amazing flying on this evening!!!
Dad stayed out of the way until it was all over then brought in a snack – a starling!!
How quickly the chicks grow – their feathers are already starting to show!
One popped out!
Stunning pics of Mum going crazy while the chicks are ringed. Dad stayed well out of it and didn’t show his face until all was finished, but at least he brought in some food in the form of a starling.
Distraught Mum
Our feisty little girl
More pics to follow in a new gallery.
If you were wondering why the camera was yet agin not working here is the reason. The chicks were ringed tonight we have a boy 60 and girl 61. Both healthy.
A boy and a girl
The webcam will be down for a short period this evening, only for about half an hour or so.
Some whizzy bits have been done to the camera feed and it is all working now except the sound.
Here’s a pic of the 2 chicks cowering out of the sun!! Too hot for them!
Too hot in the sun!!
In the end he took one of his ready meals round from the larder it had seen better days and when he finally took it to her she was not very impressed.
