It appears that all three chicks can now get themselves out of the nest box and on to the ledge. They are starting to find and work their wings and the white feathers are being replaced with dark feathers.

The chicks were born June 16 and June 17, which puts them at 30 days old.  Loki fledged at what, day 40...?

Does that mean fledging starts in about a week to week and a half... Is that right?

What I could see blown up was wonderful. At end of season , I will get this all straightened out so I can view all. Maybe I am seeing all I am supposed to.

Hope all goes well here

Cute chicks!  Hope they fledge okay and won't need to be handled by anyone............may have more injuries!  At this age they sure can capture your heart...........just have to remember that they are wild and will fly away!
