Thanks G.Will get girls up later,and try and catch them out.I wont show them vid,until they make a choice.Now i will see how good they are lol lol lol 👍
 
Mum had her wings full through the night, she was trying to sleep but the little ones kept crawling out from underneath her lol They had her driven mad lol
 
So theres not that much difference between the 2 unless you have a very good close up or look very closely at the video!

Thanks Gman xx


WOW cam just did a complete turn around and you saw the horses etc down below! and cam is in a different position now. Must be someone sitting opperating the cam at the moment coz ive seen it go round so you can see a full view of the area and also watch when one of them flies off. Fantastic


It is me or what coz last few times ive visited it can only see 2 chicks - have i missed something

Had me worried for a bit linny,all Chicks are in the nest.And we think that is Mum with them

But Last night
Oh My God what a night we had last night with our eagle family

We first noticed one Chick was out of the nest, and we witnessed a
Very big amazing struggle for Chick to get back into nest. We were all very worried
If Chick did not make it back to nest, would the Chick survive the coming night?
So I had Teresa and Daughter along side of me, cheering on every move Chick
Made in the battle to get back to nest.
One thing surprised us all, was the Eagle
Would not help in any way to get Chick back to nest?
The Eagle fed other Chicks, and ignored Chick outside nest

So you would not believe the massive cheer went up
In the Ally household when Chick finally made it back
It was as good if not better then watching match
We are looking forward to seeing Chicks develop and get stronger
 
oh dear poor chick, but then its nature i suppose. George was saying yesterday that they were watching a doc and the babies tried to fly the nest and the parents do nothing just watch them jump. but apparently the babies sort of soft landed as they couldnt fly and were ok. suppose they have to let them fend for themselves to a point but yes you would have thought as mum is so caring when she feeds that she would have tried to get the chick back to safety
 
Yes Linny Nature is amazing.it can be good and bad.I have fount in watching if Chicks are not aggressive enough to fight,and get into the right position
When Eagle is feeding.They do not get any food.Also if you watch closely,1 of the Chicks is a bit weaker,this Chick did not hatch until two day after the other two.And i have found first two Chicks hatched are very aggressive when feeding.Looks funny at time.But it is really survival of the fittest.Family here to be shouting leave Chick alone you Bully lol lol
 
one Chick has got out of nest,think it is won of the stronger Chicks.Will be watching with interest to see what happens now
 
Parent cleaning out nest at the minute, 1 chick is no in the hollow again, the other two are, again it seems the parent won't help the chick back to the hollow, very interesting to watch, although - I am hooked:nerd:
 
The operator is really going to town on the close ups and the panning of the camera, really interesting stuff, can't gert round to doing on the laptop what I got it out for. :dunno:
 
Mum is in the house
Great to see the Chicks
So feisty,and willing to ramble
Around
Anyone notice the way the Chicks
Have a Craplol lol lol
You would not want to be
Standing behind them
You may Get caught in the eye
 
You may Get caught in the eye

It's an inbuilt generic sanitation method designed to direct the waste away from the nest (Air flushing) It also exempts them from the new septic tank charges lol lol lol :leaving:
 
Just watching the two Chicks in front.They are very aggressive with each other.But do you Notice when one gets a clout from the other,it looks like The Chick goes spark out for the count.About thirty seconds later the Chick is back up and ready to go.Really amazing to watch 👍
