Oh dear, it's back to worrying then. I don't know if the juvies would be any safer in a group, but I would feel better if they had company. Not that what I feel is going to make any difference to what they do. The hard part is not knowing what happens after they leave. It's not like they could send us a postcard or anything.
carly:
Mark Nash told us that they know that some of the young migrate together but they probably don't stay together long - they get lost from each other or wander off on their own. Other than that they really don't know as there is no way of tracking them once they are gone.
bcbird:
I wonder, do young that fledge together typically migrate together, or do they become independent of their nest box siblings when they begin to hunt for themselves?
sami:
Bev, the pictures and your descriptions are wonderful. How lucky Cassie is to have Hope to keep her company - and vice versa. I was concerned about Cassie trying to migrate all by her lonesome, but feel better that she might now have company. Assuming Hope decides to leave the same time Cassie does, that is.
Alison:
Wow, Bev! What wonderful reports and spectacular photos! The ones of Cassie and Hope together are just incredible. Along with your descriptions, it's almost like being there. I wish I could see the juvies in person, but I'm so glad to know they are flying so well, and that they have each other.
