Dunedin male:
On June 12 & 13 (within 24 hours) all three chicks hatched at the Osprey nest in Calgary.

oo, new parents. Gloom
Piret was eating then, but was side-on at the front of the nest which made it difficult to see if she fed chick. I could hear chick squeaking and see a tiny bit of movement. When she turned to brood again I got a good view of the chick which looks strong and healthy. The other two eggs looked intact as far as I could tell.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
Piret suddenly gets the idea, but it didn't last long (while I was watching):
Chick and eggs seem to be spending a lot of time uncovered:
IMAGICAT
