Hi everyone, I've not been in much to the site today, on and off. It was thought that the youngest had fledged but this is in doubt and until it is confirmed by The Team we can assume that it hasn't yet.
There have certainly been some near takeoffs and helped by the wind, the youngest has jumped and "flown" across the nest but this is all. It has been the eldest getting bolder and the middle one taking on more flights. There's time yet.
Peaceful scene here with two young on the nest and the eldest probably on the cam post or way to the left at the edge,, don't really know where he is.
Happy viewing and we'll see what to day brings. Over to the night shift.

EJ just brought a massive fish :-)
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Huh! This will last them at least an hour!
Wow ... I missed EJ bringing the fish ... but its obviously one of hers .... its massive .... NO-ONE could be hungry after that! Famous last words with their hollow legs :-))

I'm certain if you look closely at EJ's latest catch, you can just about make out a ship's log book.
BTW did anyone catch her bringing that whopper in on a video? It would make a good part of Big Rab's next compilation video wouldn't it?
Ha Ha Heron.
Darn it, my OH just came home & we've been talking & I missed the delivery. Here is the scrum:
That's a great action

#3 thinks he'll just contemplate flying again....
#3 keeps on flapping - I'm afraid it just confirms my belief that he's not fledged yet, with this behaviour..... Here he is sitting still:
another study of him:
I agree with you Lindbird - #3 has been playing helicopters again ... if he was fledged, he'd be up and away I think!
