Yes, MM (I emailed you an explanation of how I misled you). However, it's just as well, they're having such bad weather, these chicks should be all the stronger for being just two Storm is perking up - s/he was in the back seat as usual, then scrambled forward to take his place next to Star for the feed. I won't post my pics now. Here is the feeding session to warm your heart: www.rspb.org.uk/community/placestovisit/lochgartenospreys/f/915/t/45940.aspx?PageIndex=7scylla x

Here's irrefutable evidence of Storm getting a really good mouthful: S/he's getting really strong, but the bloggers say they've rarely seen a such a feisty chick as Star. scylla

One is off-cam in the bottom left. Earlier someone was panning (must be mended, that's good) and I saw all three. scylla

Peregrines Sun 'n Shade The one in the shade is on the far right - when I first logged on I could only see the 2 in the nest box, OMG! I thought, two of them have die-doed Osspring have had at least a couple of good feeds this morning, and No2 is getting stronger. No1 may be feisty, but No2 is spunky! scylla

Osprey chick now three times the size of its sibling! Anyone got any idea when the eaglets will attempt their first flight? One is definitely frequently flapping wings - and jumping!

Hi Hanow.......the eaglets have been flapping for a while now. I really thought the biggest would take off the other day - the wind was so strong and he was right on the edge of the nest. MM xx
