Little Miss made a bit of a show with some flapping and hanging onto the ledge closest to the camera but then thought the better of it and went to rest in the corner.

So glad to see the picture, Deedream.  Now I have a better idea of the scene of action you all describe.  I sure hope Little Miss stays put for a bit.

OH, I hope she doesn't rush herself - she needs to wait til she's good and ready!  :o

she looks very tempted to go, watching others flying, her little head following them all, almost looked like a tennis game there! Wings open but not confident on the ledge..

now she's looking down from the edge closest to the cam and crying... one foot on the perch, oh now the other, not a lot of confidence, just a lot of squawking..

yup, still dependent on parents for food. His last bite was a leg that he munched and munched until it all went in. eww

just watched Chase go back to the ledge closest to the camera, step out and fly!!! Now sis is standing there, spread her wings and went, naaaa, back in the box to the corner to see if anything was left!

I'm assuming it's Chase and his landing was solid back in the box. Parent just left and bro and sis are eating in the corner!

she's now up and getting antsy. running back and forth and flapping - maybe thinks she doesn't want to all alone!

very cool, parent comes in with food, feeds a squawking girl, even squawked while eating, and then parent took the food and ripped off its wing and flew away (to feed the others?)
