Can't believe I missed that -- did Little Charmer fly straight home, or did he take a scenic route? It's so good to see them all "safe in the nest". So much for Sis's room to herself . . .

If he sits visible, the chick will run to him ... easier to say out of sight instead of being chased off my your kid 'cuz you don't got no food!!!  :)

Thanks TPC! That makes a lot of sense now. Love to know the reasons behind their actions!

...I don't know about P and T, but I feel quite proud of our flyers now that I've seen a fledgling flight for real and they're all back together!  ;D

How do we know which is which with both boys back?  

The smaller of the two is "Hot Shot", "Little Charmer" cocks and tips his head like a cute version of the Exorcist ...

Trey is sitting there for the chick - he has better places than that to sit.  As for not seeing the nestledge, oh yes he can :)  That's why the Paris Building is his fav!

I'm feeling a little daft at them moment as I belabour this question...but here goes anyway: Trey's there for the chick, so...is there any reason why he would choose a lower, out of sight (for the chick) position? I keep thinking if he chose a spot in view of the chick, it might reassure the chick and Trey instead of just relying on calling to each other...

If he sits visible, the chick will run to him ... easier to say out of sight instead of being chased off my your kid 'cuz you don't got no food!!!  :)

Little Charmer is getting restless, flapping, turning around.  He's off!  I saw him get to the ledge.   What a feat!!!!
