Ferenz, me too!! I want this little one to make it so badly!! My concern now is it took Louis almost 2 days to bring this fish in under the weather and fishing conditions here and baby needs food now. Hopefully, he can bring another in soon.

:15heartbeat:

The alternate cam shows Louie eating (beheading? preparing for Iris? feeding himself?) that large fish.

Has Louis been A.W.O.L. since 6-9-18? I wonder how the stadium Osprey family's fishing has been the past few days...

Bonbon, this is an excerpt from what was posted @ 5:10 pm mountain time yesterday evening on twitter:

"The chicks were last fed 6/9 at 19;14 mdt and Louis brought a stick to the nest prior to 9 am this morning. We join you in positive thoughts & prayers that Louis will be able to bring a fish soon."


So, Louis was gone for 24 hours and none of the chicks had been fed since almost 2 days ago.

Hello all,
A lot has happened this weekend. I will do my best to recap-
3rd and last chick hatched Friday am, June 8, 2018.
Several feedings occurred between then and Saturday evening, June 9, 2018.
Louis returned to nest only once on Sunday morning, June 10, but with a stick and no fish.
Next feeding was today, Monday, June 11 at around 9am. Chicks have gone unfed for 38 hours (!!!).
Chick #3 has not been fed this morning, not from lack of fish, but from being too weak to beg. His fate uncertain.
Two older chicks have eaten to satisfaction with huge bulging crops.
Best, Dalit

:sorrow: Lil 3!!

The family has not been fed so far today. Louis did bring in a nice fish last eve per twitter around 9:30 pm. He arrived @ the nest this am with a stick. From reports, Iris had plenty to say! She is calling for Louis @ intervals. In going back on the DVR over the last 4 hours, when she is off the chicks calling or preening, they are bonking. One even did a sustained number on the others wing, but I don't think he hurt it. The cam op has panned the area looking for Louis, but not seen since stick delivery.

To view this cam, I have to leave the forum and pull up Cornell. I have tried different browsers. Are you all able to pull up this cam from here?

Swinwk, what do you mean? While I type this, I have a "Tab" opened for Hellgate so I can click it on. I'm using Microsoft 'Edge.'

:dancegirl: Hey, bonbon! Thanks for responding! What I mean is: When I go to Page One of this Dunrovin & Hellgate, MT site and click on the CAM LINK @ the top of the page it takes me to the Hellgate Canyon Nest Cam, however the screen is black and I see the message: This live stream recording is not available. I used Chrome 1st and then IE and results are the same message. I CAN NOT GET TO THE CAM FOR THIS SITE FROM HERE. In order to see a live cam of this site, I leave the BCAW forum and pull up Cornell bird cam and find Hellgate there. When I'm done I leave there, then come back to this forum to report what I have seen or read. Last season, I did not have to do that. And that is why I am asking: Are you all able to pull up this cam from here?

:sum9: Well, he did it! Louis brought in a large fish a little over 4- 5 hours ago that Iris and the kids spent over an hour eating off of. Then when Louis thought they had enough, he gingerly walked up near Mom, eventually grabbing the remains and flying off. He was gone for several minutes, returning with the same fish and all gorged on for the next 3 hours @ one time or another. When I left, Louis was on his perch @ the nest still eating off that fish!! * I did think the babies are showing @ least one sign of dehydration with sunken eyes. Hopefully, this very long, feed and frequent enough feedings in the future will turn that around for them.

A little over 2 hours ago, Iris removed Lil 3 from the nest bowl and initiated the circle of life while her babes slept and Louis was on the roost. She waited awhile and took him to the other side of the nest and continued. It is not complete yet, but nearly so. She has engaged in her usual routines in between.

Just scanned the last 4 hours on the DVR and no food during this period. Every time Iris gets off the babes the oldest bonks the youngest into submission in anticipation of a feed. Once the youngest decides it's okay to raise it's head, they beak each other in a non-aggressive mode. The cam op scanned the skies and Louis's favorite perching spots searching for him to no avail. Hopefully, Louis will arrive soon with a fish.

:penguin: Louis came in with a small fish a little over 50 minutes ago!! Iris fed her chicks first, then ate the flesh near the tail and the tail itself. She immediately started fussing, sending Louis on his way for more fish! As the feed began, the oldest bonked the little one into submission, but it did not last long and the little one was up and getting it's fair share of bites. Two interesting things happened during the feed, I observed. 1) I think it was the oldest who actually self fed @ least one bite, snatching it from between Iris's talons as she clutched the fish!! 2) The beaking I witnessed earlier between the 2 enhanced their skill of being able to "beak with their Mom" each simultaneously removing the piece of fish hanging out from the right and left sides of her beak that was nearest to them!! Keep that fish coming, Louis!!

:flirty: Louis returned with a larger fish about 1 1/2 hours ago. Same order in feed, except when Louis thought Iris had enough , he tried to take it from her 4-5 times before he was successful. Dad has to eat too!!

:flirty: Louis returns with same fish, I think. Iris starts to feed young, but they are asleep and don't wake up. Mom feeds herself instead. You ended up doing a good job today, Louis!! :loveshow:
