04.06.2020 Day 16
Wings! The Chicks are practicing lots of flaps. I’m guessing it’s really important for them to get up and move a bit, even in their tiny little quarters. They’ve got to keep the blood flowing to all the parts they are growing right now. They move around a lot in their little nest.
Now that their peepers are open and watching for scary things, I’m no longer taking photos up close to the nest. I have the camera on a tripod, limit my movements as much as I can, and try to respect their need for #socialdistancing.
Photos in my posts will now be screenshots from videos, so the quality won’t be quite as sharp. The view is still pretty spectacular, though.
Frances feeds the Chicks often - they need lots of fuel to grow their fancy wings!
