The more, the merrier,

Nevertheless I won't post my version of 022 feeding the egg-tooth

I'm still catching up and have got the start of Springwatch paused on TV, don't know what to prioritse so have fallen between 2 stools, as they say

We’ve got a chick!! 

EDIT - Hatched 22.26   Sighted here at 23.09.28 

Congratulations BoPH, CJ7 and 022. (Lots of feeding tomorrow 022!!)

Another hatch video to throw into the mix! Love the little one begging for food at 06.02 this morning. Do we have an official hatch time? Last night 22.29 -ish?

Edit: thanks Alison for advising official hatch time is 22.26

Geemeff, I think BoPH have gone with 22.26.

The second chick has hatched this morning at around 11.05.

Such marvellous news, hope to see on Springwatch tonight!

Welcome number two!

Something not seen very often, both adults trying to feed the chick at the same time from opposite sides of the nest.

Looks like 022 has found a new food source, he arrived earlier with what looked like a Rudd, some think it's a Perch, so he's fishing in a lake or river.
