The size difference is amazing.
I think we are seeing a FIRST HATCHED BIG GIRL and a last hatched little boy.

From Laura:
"The IPL chicks will be banded on Monday, June 6th so don’t panic if you see the chicks go missing for a bit. These guys are looking good. From my observations, I think there are 2 males and 2 females."

Look at how great these chicks look--& we worried about them so at the beginning. Thanks for the great pictures, Alison!

All shots are so cute, but the two Alison posted where the chick is flat out on its belly . . . hilarious! :laugh2

And I love the way Alison's picture really shows of the nice tail feathers coming in.

Breakfast!!! Only got to see Big Bertha eat...one of the babies was up front (you can see the shadow), but just not quite tall enough to get a mouthful...this may have been the second breakfast as one of the babies looked sacked out and the other one hung back until the very end...don't think she got anything, though...

The baby at the end:

"Big Bertha"

On the before last picture, little baby looks so melancholic by looking at the piece of meat on the edge :sad:

, when it does not seem to have a full belly ... Big Bertha is so much bigger than him ! :shock:

I know....I felt so bad for it...it must have been the middle of the feed...and I could see the baby's shadow then entire time...he rarely opened his mouth and the other baby didn't even bother to get up...so maybe they had eaten earlier...

...anyway, this was earlier this afternoon....the perfect baby falcon pancake..
