What a noise!!  Is that her, or someone outside?  Why would she be screaming into the corner?

I agree Pchemist. I notice that last years chicks were born a few days earlier than these chicks and they fledged by July 3 but still hung around the nestbox (according to the notes with the photo's) so this weekend looks like it very well be it!

Gladly, she's pretty much down-free on her back and wings now, so I feel better about her trying flying.  Hope she waits a bit longer though.

I notice a big difference in her confidence since yesterday..  :D :D  and now,, I have two howling cats, wanting to go out for there evening stroll about the yard on their leashes. lol  and I have to take them one at a time, they don't want the other around when they go out. lol

She's definately more confident today, standing up on the ledge more.

I haven't seen her do that before, one talon holding on and the other scratching. another sign of a little more confidence..

Pretty sure that was mom.  Did you get a good look at the size of her when she came in close to the camera?  She's one big mama!   :)
