Videos under sign of Marri apart from a possible sighting on day 2. After a week, I would expect to see both of them on one of the roost trees (about 500 m from the tower) or on the tower itself together and that we haven’t seen yet. Both youngsters fledged really well both on 14/1123: Marri (at 43 days) at 0939 and Barru (at 42 days) at 1536. Videos on the channel. They may return to the box after a few days (or not) . Either way they stay in the area for a month or two learning to hunt. And the parents still feed them during this period if needed. Tower cam was replaced on 14th November. It provides clearer images, zoom and pan capabilities (360 degrees). Note that at present I can only change the image when I’m at work. It’s the same url. LAST SEASON Two chicks last year: Indigo and Rubus, both males. Indigo dispersed after Diamond blocked his entry to the nest box on 18th March. Rubus died of a flying accident nine days after fledging.
