Finally get to see a feeding!  Three cute little wobblies seem to be doing very well! :)

Mom was obscuring the view for most of it, the little one was at the front and then wiggled it's way around where I couldn't see.....this is after Mom left.

Mostly sunny since 9:00am wind not much more than a nice breeze from south,southeast lots of sun in the nest box and it's starting to be a really nice day for a change.

...Appears windy in the nest box...
Does look windy up there in the nestbox. Maybe it's just as windy at the Radisson nestbox, except it appears to be more protected from the wind than the Brandon nestbox. :-\

I see the sun has come out in Brandon, it's supposed to be 25c with winds from the southwest today.  Still cloudy here in Rapid City. (sigh)

Missed this morning feeding but there will be more.  Appears windy in the nest box..........do you have a lot of wind today?  Sun is trying to shine here but the ground is still wet from the showers overnight/morning.  Appears calm here.  Only 9 deg.

Breakfast, everybody got some! the chicks are all pretty active and wiggley. Brooklyn is doing his job and getting the occasional cuddle in.Hurricane doesn't let him stay long and she's back on duty pretty quick. :)

Did you see that Hurricane "shuggled" the egg shell back on the babies head!  No....NO.........I just came from there...........let me out ::)
...lol, wasn't it Ivy, last year, playing around with one of the shells, and ended up flipping it in the air and wearing it on his head for a bit?

  Just saw a feeding now @9pm and the new hatch was opening his mouth and then would fall over.  Mom would try again but I think the pieces were too big.  The wee one kept trying, fall over and whether he/she succeeded I have no idea.

Here's Mom feeding the little one, he/she got a couple of bites that I could see.

Rose I must have tuned in at the same time as you because I couldn't have described what I saw any better than you did.  Exactly as it was.......so neat to see.    Just saw a feeding now @9pm and the new hatch was opening his mouth and then would fall over.  Mom would try again but I think the pieces were too big.  The wee one kept trying, fall over and whether he/she succeeded I have no idea.  Will be stronger for the next feeding.
Great evening for sure. :D
