To answer a few questions all in one place ...
1. Mealtimes right now will probably be 3-5 hours apart, the chicks are small and hungry but they sleep more than anything. Eating at this stage takes a lot of effort so they really only do the two things at the moment - eat and sleep. Don't worry, everyone will get fed and they will get fed enough. Remember, this isn't Princess' first clutch and she hasn't done so badly so far. Ivy's been catching on very quickly and is a very good hunter so no worries there either. Not sure he'll get to feed for the first few days but we'll have to see.
2. There is a bit of damp on the nestbox cam lens, that is from the rain, it should dry off shortly. And no, we won't be going up to clean it. Will leave them all alone for a bit, particularly since its damp and cool right now.
3. Videos of first meal are being uploaded as we speak, takes awhile, so check the video gallery in an hour (

4. If you are having problems with the webcam view, do NOT post them here - this thread is for observations only. Please post them here (
