June 30 was a great evening of flight training. The mother did circuit after circuit with hovering over the nest. Dad in the meantime, hung out on a nearby light watching the whole time. We only stayed 20 minutes, but were enthralled by the activity of the mom. Things seem to be progressing well, and all three chicks made appearances.
Notice how the feathers on the front of her wings are all ruffled. |
