Osprey Update

Three chicks thriving. Being fed 5-6 times a day with daily 100% water changes. Nice growth.
One chick starting to test out the wings a bit.

Dad flies in to join the family.

Yun,
This pair has been regulars in Old Town for three years, and on this site for the second year.
Chicks have probably 3-4 weeks before they are flying.
