Friday 2nd May 2014

There are 5 chicks visible here.

What's Georgie removing from the nest box?  It doesn't look like a dead chick, but I don't see why she thinks she should remove just a feather!

This is a shot of her leaving the nest box.  You really can't see what she is carrying.

Anyway, we still seem to have 6 chicks in Box1.  The sixth chick is just visible by the left hand side of Georgie's head.

This definitely is six chicks!

Feed time!  Five out of the six are begging for food which is a good sign.

Over in Box2, Harry is feeding 7 chicks.

Box1 again with 6 chicks.

A mid-afternoon feed for Georgie's 6 chicks.

It looks as though Pippa has 8 chicks!

Yes, you can clearly see 8 again here.
