Thanks so much for the link rcf, glad you posted it as I wanted to watch it happening and had to miss it. Very vocal young one.  ;D

No worries about that little chick Elaine, he was fine.  In fact he's older than we usually band our chicks (note all the flight feathers showing through) and that usually just means more vocal and more aggressive.  The chick wasn't away for inordinate amount of time and he did not appear to be in distress just highly annoyed.  An advantage of the venue was that the parents weren't within earshot or eyeshot (obvious I know) and in my experience, that is more stressful than 10-20 minutes with humans, even talking humans.  :D
