Alison:
The cam has been down, but there is a video of a feeding from May 24. It is quite a long feeding, and later in the video one of the chicks goes around behind Mom, finds a piece of food and waddles off to try to self-feed. He/she did a pretty good job. The chicks are looking good.

Alison:
Suddenly there is a small flurry of news stories about the Poughkeepsie site having two "newly hatched" chicks. Well, they are not newly hatched, and there were originally three chicks.

Mom with chicks:

Alison:
The two chicks are growing:

 

carly:
I checked this morning and noticed there were only two but I wasn't sure if I was checking the right nestbox.  :'(

Alison:
Very sadly, it seems we have lost one precious little chick. I thought this was the case yesterday, but didn't want to say so at that point just in case.  :'(

Today there are only two chicks in the nest box. Both of them look good.
