Continuing good news here.  Rebecca and Nembo's chicks are all doing well including the little guy that is being raised by hand.  Kudos to all of the people who have been working so hard for the survival of these chicks. 

carly:
Rebecca and kids all doing well.  Kim from italy has been kind enough to post english updates on the BCAW board and some pictures too!

I also saw some shots of her feeding the kids a few times today on the Italy board, she does look tired though..poor dear.

As for food, they are catering steadily...they aren't leaving the food in the box which is why we dont' see it - due to the heat and the smells it would create in the box .  They found a place outside the box where she trusts and she is taking the food so it's all good  ;D

carly:
Getting dark there and mom's not back home for the night yet   :-\  The cam keeps lightening and darkening..I think they are trying to see if she's back too..but she's not, bad sign as she's not usually this late  :'(

carly:
Uh oh...cam is back up for Kestrels...ok whew..it's cam quality.  Just saw bunch of pics on forum that are current of Rebeccas feeding her brood.  They're just mushed into the corner together!

Thanks for sharing the story of Kaver, Alison.
