WEber...

Feed going on right now...as usual, 1,2,3 are up front....4 and 5 in the back....I think #4 has managed to wark toward the front...#5 is currently buried by the others and has gotten nothing yet....2 are temporarily down...and either 3 or 4 getting bites..

So far, #5=Zero...

#5 is trying, but just can't get through the other 4 and so fizzles out for a minute or 2...3 are still up and eating, #4 being one of the 3...#5 is resting, eyes closed...

is there any chance the little one will be fed till he's bigger and then returned to the nest?
Or will he go to Pembina?

so here it is.

I stress fully watched this weekend and monitored every feed. the problem was not with parents. you will not see another pair of adults as in sinc s these two

with the rain , I noticed on Sat. lots of feeds but smaller prey. What happens is, the bigger chicks do not get full enough to lie down and so #5 could not get in there. this is ho w feeds go and so with more chicks , bigger get as they are BIGGER. With larger prey, bigger ones will eventually lie down and others can get. our little one tried but would get tangled up with bigger ones and just sort of cuddle . will post a picture of it later

In a large feed yesterday , he did get fed, as Do1 brought in more during the feed . and Do1 gave it a few bites also when he came in.Was enough to sustain him till today.

So I weighed it all out and made the call yesterday afternoon. our biologist could not gain access til this morning.

adn now we can breath.

I just talked to our biologist and he let me hear our little guy. He sounded great , adn I iwl get and e-mail later on today.

He wil not come back here. there are 4 here and that is more than enough . better for them

Just watched the takeout of chick #5 . Glad that small worry is over. It will have a fighting chance with Gord.
