How many of us are torn between dread and hope for the new day to come?
The peace and quiet of the LG nest is punctuated solely by unalarming chick noises. Long may that last.

I haven't said anything as I didn't want to start the alarm, but I haven't noticed any movement either. The last attack was so vicious.
Yes it does look as if chick #3 is no longer with us.

The part I will never understand is that there was no fish on the nest to fight over. The other chicks just killed #3.
After my own personal recent loss, the death of #3 has hit me so hard. I'll be back when I can actually see what I am looking at and typing through the tears. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED and I feel as Sandra does! I'm devastated. :o(((

Oh Sandra According to the center this unprovoked violence by #2 was just normal nest fighting . We were told to settle down , nothing to worry about
Well she just killed him

Hi all.
Thanks for the posts, pics, vids etc. Sadly things look bleak and possibly over for poor Bravery. I suppose this is just nature's way though. Two out of three succesfully fledging in a season where the cold and wet weather has done nothing to help would be a positive result.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
MOFFER, Please take comfort that #3 is no longer suffering.
