A new day. A new thread. The question everyone is asking is "Will Tore fledge today?"
Well maybe yes but maybe no.
On the positive side she enters her 54th day today. Also the weather looks as if it might be kind to her today.
However she does not seem to have done enough training for the osprey olympics.
I feel that it will not be Tuesday but we will see some serious flapping today. They may well fledge very close together.

I don't think she will fledge today either...but who am I? :)
ChloeB & Tiger's Osprey Data
I agree with Tiger and Chloe, and I don't know who I am either ;-) But I am looking forward to some serious wingercising from both our osspring today!

I DO know who I am, but I DON'T know if Tore will fledge Tuesday! If I were betting, I'd say no. There does not seem to be big motivation to get out of the nest. She tolerates her brother, there's enough fish, etc. Yet she is growing up every day, adopting adult behaviors, watching adult behaviors. Rather than being DRIVEN to fly, I think Tore will be inspired in one glorious moment!

CC remember how Flag stayed stuck to the nest for day, after day........
I certainly do! Waaaah....
But then....
A Very Special Sort of Day
Sleepy eyed I rose this morning
Knowing not what I would see.
Magic wrought this day of all days
Touched the deepest chords in me.
Grace descended from the heavens
Blew her gentle breath o'er all,
Love then blossomed all around me
Heightened by an osprey's call.
Lifting wings into the sunlight
One small bird flew strong and sure,
Filled this world with great emotion
Thrilled it to its very core.
Stunned, I sat and watched in wonder
Joyful tears spilled from my eyes,
As proudly came the proclamation,
Tiger roared..."OUR FLAG...
...HE FLIES!!

Then how about posting Flag's song to round it off CC? I listen to it even now and sometimes use it as a ringtone for my phone :)
That's lovely, Chloe :-* In a way I'm glad not to have been part of it, my heart wouldn't have withstood it. And we don't know what is yet in store for us.
