Daily Update (LG Nest) Thursday 26th May 2011

I only saw 2 chicks and one egg when I watched the cam.

I think what you are seeing as an extra set of eyestripes are the darker markings on the body of  one of the chicks, near the wings.

Good morning all and thanks to all for all the pics from yesterday and this morning so far.  Logged in just in time to see EJ feeding the little ones a sight which always warms my heart.  From your posts can see that they are having a bit of a wet time of it again, wish the weather would inprove a bit for them.  Hate to see poor EJ absolutely soaked, she must feel pretty chlly at times.  Feed over and she has tucked them underneath her again.  I see from the main blog that Odin delivered 6 fish yesterday so he has certainly upped his game now.

I admit it does look like a third eye stripe and half in a broken shell but it is sooo difficult to see from the camera.  EJ didn't make any attempt to feed a third as she did when the second was coming out of the shell which leads me to think not!

Short clip of the end of that last feed:

Chicks being fed ... only two heads bobbing about while feeding

Rats, how embarrassisng , yes I can only see two now Joan

I am so sorry

Aw Cirrus! I thought I saw the same as you! I've cleaned my glasses now though! lol

Never mind Cirrus, similar happened to me yesterday you may remember!  I guess we are all just willing that last egg to hatch ...

(Had to take a sneaky peek from work to see how they are all doing!  Thanks to everyone for the updates and pics).

Hi folks, late logging on, finishing off chores!!

Thanks Tiger for starting us off and for all the pics and updates.

Just watched EJ fly off for a comfort break, looking quite sodden.  Definitely could only see two chicks.not very clear though.
