Monday, June 2, they are there and they are already BIG!

There's a bug!

Some older snack . . .

Hunkered down in the wind

Turning around on a tiny branch is even trickier!

One still has a little fuzz, but by the next day it is gone.

Got it!

The zoomed out view

Thursday, June 5. I get here early before the sun reaches the nest. Before I can get my camera at the ready, Mom flies overhead with a giant rodent dangling. Here she is landing on the nest with bloody bits still clinging to her beak. Apparently the nest has a back room, because I can see movement of feathers. Clearly the youngsters are chowing down back there out of sight.

Tuesday, June 3. One of three has taken to wing--a short flight to another branch.

All three in the nest makes for a crowd!

Wednesday, June 4--it's extremely windy, but it's breakfast time.

The one that can fly is coming in for an awkward landing on a branch nearby.

whew!

The adventurous one

Young 'un out on a limb. He kept flying the short distance to and from the nest.

Yum

This is tricky

Now how do I turn around?

Who are YOU?

Off to another tree further away.

There!
