I will try and have more picutres later

thi s young one gets so stuffed.

so a few thought he was weak before. Of course he was, he was only getting just enough to eat, but once she caught on and he started grabbing and she got better at feeding , hi s crop was full and he got stronger.

they hope to band on June 18th so they should be able to treat skin. Zooey has been good at cleaning leftovers off him.

will watch as much as I can. busy week

Quote:

About Nova and *Chance:
- It is hot AF here. The falcons will survive, but the heat is stressing them. Zooey's panting and Chance's* (not official name yet) lethargy are due in part to the extreme heat.
- Blackflies haven't been too much of a problem, but little *Chance had a serious hippoboscid infestation. These flies take a blood meal by biting into flesh and lapping up the blood that wells into the wound. We began to suspect we had an infestation when *Chance's wingpits turned black (hippoboscid excrement and dried blood, gross) and it kept falling over. We treated the infestation, knock on wood and cross your talons. *Chance was extremely stressed and sick, but today's behavior and improved health gives us hope.

We can't pull *Chance but I'm very hopeful for the success of this nest.

You have been a very faithful 'gramma' to Chance.
This year there have not been nearly as many interested as past years.
Very few RRP blog posts - you could get RRP - right??
so you saw Nora's pic of Chance ?
