jadoo:
...looking for some way to distinguish the two, and it looks like Swoop (who's now lying down in front of the camera, staring into it, (I'm ready for my close-up Mr DeMille), with Spirit behind her) has the very pale feet, and Spirit's feet are much yellower. Don't know it that will change over time, but for now, it helps to distinguish them while they are running back and forth...
jadoo:
...saw a tag - that is Swoop in front of the camera...
jadoo:
...havent' seen both juvies this morning, because one has been parked in front of the ledge cam for the past 20 min's. Good close-ups of her preening, probably trying to help along the molting of her baby down. Sharp looking talons... :o
jadoo:
...checked in this morning, one chick napping in the nestbox - hard to know where the other chick is for sure, but i thought i saw some movement just outside the nest box on the ledge cam - i'm pretty sure the other chick is on the other side of the nest box. LOTS of brown feathers coming in now; mom on the outside ledge, looking alert but calm. All's well here right now...
jadoo:
...feeding going on outside the nestbox, both chicks seem happy to let mom distribute the food to them this morning. She started with the one on the camera side of the nest box; the second chick, who was on the other side of the nest box, out of sight, came hurrying around when she finally realized what was going on without her...both look healthy and alert. Looks like an ok day there - little hazy in the distance, and cloudy...
