Chicks 1,2 and 3. - photo ID's, markings, required please

Images I took 9th July.

Chick 1.

Chick 2

Chick 3

Re the above images, first of all, do you think I have identified them correctly?

Yes, think that's right - but it is very hard to tell them apart isnt it, this year?

Here is a pic of what I think is #One, practising

--but not sure which one is on the right, watching. Could be #3,  as #2 has more white around the eye.

Thanks Lindybird: I shall put up some more single bird shots, the blogs could be a source for snipping these, as well as the livecam. It would be nice, if we could find a 'fingerprint', a unique marking that could be used.

Thanks very much jsb for attempting this.  Its a difficult task and maybe the staff at LG will give some guidance in their forthcoming updates now that we will all be guessing the birds' identities.  They too are bound to be looking for unique features.  Cheers.  Emma

Yes thanks, jsb. it is confusing at the moment. 

Aide memoire, No 3's stripes on his tail. Thanks to Lindybird.

--- I was just coming on, to put that pic on here, jsb - before I forgot!!!  Glad its useful      :-)

The  one on the nest flapping it's wings has to be #3. I  can see the feet of #1  flying over head 

That would make the  one on the right #2 

I can't explain it  but #3's eyes look  different  to me 

Alicat's pic of Youngest is the very best ... delta of 'rivers' on its forehead

Copy of Lynette's post on the daily update 16/07 page 12.

Looking at the nest, I make it youngest on the left at the back with middle one next to him and the eldest in the foreground.
