I spy at least one troublemaker...   ::)

I believe that is Trey on the corner, keeping watch over his shoulder.  Hard to tell but looks like a nice white expanse on the chest and a manly black head.

course with Princess (I think) just landing I know for sure, right?

Neat to see Trey leap off and swoop away!

Quiet in here with-out all the trouble makers ain't it !  Even Loriann is somewhat behaved without the "gang" here.

Tracy would be able better to answer that question.  She will be online after she gets back from the Phanatics get together.


Oh, right, I'd forgotten about that. No wonder it's so quiet tonight! Bit of a bummer that we can't all go to the get together!  I guess somebody's got to watch over the chicks, or at least watch Trey or Princess watching over their chicks!  ;D

as I recall, the chicks are really quite big in terms of any predator coming for them.  But more importantly, Princess and Trey (one or both) are always watching and would drive any potential predator away.  With the cam pulled back you can usually see one of them (right now perched on the drain lid) and we're told the other is always nearby as the first line of defense.

Other than man, and the location they are at the only predator I can think of would be Great Horned Owls and Eagles and such but I am not sure. Tracy would be able better to answer that question.  She will be online after she gets back from the Phanatics get together.

I'm just watching the chicks sleep . . . with a parent (Trey?) standing guard nearby. Trying to judge the size of the chicks, and I wondered if, at this stage of their development, there are any predators that could be a danger to them. Does anybody know?

seems like Trey is nestkeeping by finding leftovers and feeding them to the kids.

What a guy - I feel so badly for him when Princess comes and takes over when he's feeding the kids a 'fresh' meal.

Ah . . . one little head popping up from the chickpile -- can it be mealtime again? Or just too much togetherness?

Trey just got his chance to come in again...seemingly to get a little snack on the leftovers for himself. ;D

Princess just crashed yet another meal Trey was trying to deliver!

At least he's doing a good job of providing!

It's great to see them all together in the chick pile.  Very glad to see Waldo decide to join the other two.
