Wing the Deputy Biologist posted awhile ago asking people to keep an eye on whether the chick gets fed or not so we know he's watching at least. Someone just posted there that no way they will let anything happen to our chick and they will intervene if it comes to it.

The person who posted may be on Pacific time which is about 5 hours behind I think? The posts there don't time stamp, instead they say, posted 15 minutes ago, posted 56 minutes ago...etc...

(it just looked like it, but I'm sure it was because she was stressed that her baby was down there and that she can't fit). So, this was all accidental but still, not sure what's going to happen here now. The chick, I don't think will be able to get back up there.

I was hoping that is what had happened because I just can't believe that the Mom or Dad would deliberatly do that to their chick because they have the maternal instinct to protect and provide for their chicks.

It's 3:21 pm over there right now. That's an awefully long time for a chick to go without food. :(
allikat:
Well that makes sense why there are all these dark feathers around.
When I watch this cam, you can see the chick calling to the parent and the parent responds and goes to the chick but immediately returns to the eggs. This little one must be extremely hungry and that's why it keeps calling out. I hope someone gets down there to remove those eggs and do something to help this family out. This is only causing more stress for the birds especially after an intruder was, from the sounds of it, way too close for comfort.
