Fledging Day for EJ's 25th chick, Willow, was yesterday, at age 54 days old, all captured by our online team! In addition, we have reports and pics from MaryGK and Granny Smith direct from the VC. Exciting times, with photos of the whole family in one tree. All to get us prepared for the looming prospect of ENS. VC is now switching cam views from the nest to the tree for our viewing pleasure (blog from Chris). Also a blog from Sarah anticipating ENS.
However tonight, for now we can feast our eyes on the two brothers sharing a nest together in true fraternity.

LOL scylla --- we need to switch our posts! Rowan got up a few minutes before I posted, probably right after Day Cam.

I can't open my files, I'm getting stuck in no-man's-land all the time :'(
Willow had a failure of nerve, but he'll get there eventually, as CC has stated :-)
Morning all :)

Cluck-cluck-cluck from Willow, returning calls from Rowan :-)
Aww, thanks, MOFFER :-) I've just started converting the VLC footage to try to extract the missing bits, cos I can't navigate it... it would take hours, let's cancel !!!
His bald spot seems to have gone away.
Willow has flown
Who's this then?
Gone.
