Oh My Gosh!!!!!!!!

Hehe..they posted more pics of little Alphonse being fed, and scroll down a bit more for one of him sleeping in a sock...sooo cute!! I'm so happy he was rescued and so impressed at how well taken care of he is...I know it's not an easy job!

They don't want to leave too much food because it will attract predators..quite understandable indeed as a nest with 4 defenseless chicks would be a field day for someone. Apparently they had left food outside somewhere for her but she didn't trust it and didn't go near it. All I can translate so far!

More importantly, Rebecca won't eat food that isn't fresh. Leaving more than she can go through in a day or so could put her off the offerings, even though she needs it. And it would be a case of trusted, that isn't where her mate would leave it for her so no reason for her to think it is safe/fresh. Its a dicey operation, hit-miss in fact ...

I hope all will be okay...
I wish the cam was online so we could see but...maybe tomorrow :)
Thanks for the update Carly ;D
