July 14 other observations: Sierra: "As I was watching the close up view this morning, Skye had been squealing on the way into the nest and when Dad saw him he pretended he was eating or wanting the fish. Skye ran in and grabbed it. |

July 15 other observations: I Love Barbaro observed: "9:51 am - Little One quiets again as she has some serious pulling to do. Then she stops pulling and starts peeping. (All of a sudden, she can't do both at the same time?) Mom, who usually doesn't pay too much attention to her antics, watches the babe closely. Facing the meadow still on her balcony, she alternates her gaze from Skye to behind her, back to Skye, then behind her again. Maybe Dad or another bird is nearby in another tree, and the babe feels the threat of competition. This is good. This is a good lesson to learn--to be aware of her surroundings as she eats. The genesis of this was probably the development several weeks ago of her intolerance of either parent being in the nest when she started eating." sandra gee observed: "8:55pm.....Yikes!!!!! that made me jump ..... a large piece of the tree....front right side just crashed down into the nest....the branches are what you see in the bottom r/hand corner of screen." Skipper observed: "I watched the replay and the branch that fell was the one that we have been seeing waving around in the top middle of the screen. It landed at the edge of the nest at about the 5 o'clock position so it is now part of the nest." |

queenie's photo - July 19 "2:38pm Skye leaving nest after eating, being fed & resting" |
July 19 other observations: Skipper observed: "1:37 p.m. When the second delivery arrived, the parent/Skye had a "collision." Not to be an alarmist, but Skye now seems to be favouring his right wing. Waiting anxiously to see if he flies from the nest OK as he is still feasting on the second delivery. link to Skipper's video "Collision!" (47 sec) 1:45 p.m. Skye still in the nest. Is limping a little and keeps lifting his right wing." jkr observed: "1:42 He looks to be limping a bit and having problems with his right wing. He's repeatedly stretching it but not out fully and there are a lot of white feathers hanging lower than his wing. Walking around now -- maybe working out the kinks." Janner observed: "2:00 - I notice that Skye doesn't want to use his left leg as much!! 2:06 - It's Dad that's limping!! 2:09 - Hopefully they will both have the sense to stay here for a while!!" jkr observed: "2:04 Skye comes loudly whining to nest front. Parent stands on the nest looking to the right. Skye is getting louder before turning his back and softly whining. 2:05 Skye is still at 7:00 with his back to us. He lifts that right wing again and whines. 2:10 Back to 7:00 position to stand. He's not very active at all and making no attempt to leave the nest. 2:12 He lays at nest center facing the meadow. This hasn't happened after any other meals since fledging. Is he resting that wing?" Janner observed: "2:20 - Phew - Skye flew up to the branch - had an all over feather shuffle!!" jkr observed: "2:38 He flys off at 12:00 ---- both wings looked to be fine on take off. He gives us 2 peeps on his way across the meadow" |
