Mum just came back to where Sumo is, shook her head and feathers and Sumo was looking at here sideways and up and down. Now Sumo has gone behind mum.

Lol..not sure what Sumo is doing but he's trying to chew on mom's tail..and mom isn't too thrilled.  She keeps moving it and he keeps following it and trying to munch on it...not sure if he's trying to preen her or maybe she has some food stuck on it  :P

Awww she just gave him a kiss..hehe  :-*  And now back to the mama's tail feathers  :P

1234 hrs (Winnipeg) - Sumo the crazy little chicklet has wandered around the back of the box/nest-tray.  If you can't see him, look for the white thing in the bottom left of the top (nest) cam image.  Trying to get out of the heat/sun maybe - the metal may be cooler and it does look like he's lying on his belly ...

Sumo is changing so fast...I just love how he can't get settled unless Mom is there right beside him.  :-*

Oh I'm so glad you got that shot Alison..is he not the most adorable !  He got up again cause mom didn't get close enough and now he is laying right by her feet.  So sad he has no siblings to cuddle with but at least mom seems to like to be close to him at nighttime otherwise I don't think he'd sleep much  ;)

The lone chicks are always so hard to watch, they are so lonely and you wish you could do something to help..like throw in a stuffie or something. :-\

Wow..just checked the bri site and saw pictures of little sumo today - he went all the way to the end of the ledge where you see that kind of rock in the distance!!!  He laid down in the sun  :-*

i believe so but he didn't give an exact date I could see.  Not sure it will be a big deal down there or just go in, band and get out.  I guess we'll find out  :P

Well little Sumo is trying to self feed again..lol..he keeps grabbing the food from mom and trying to run off with it..hehe!  Then she grabs it back and feeds him..too funny!  They won't have any problems teaching him to tear up his own dinner  :P
