Melv 2Nd Chick Lost
33 Answers
I was just watching and the second chick was standing towards the camera on the piece of wood. After a few minutes of flapping and preening he tried to step down onto the metal pole. He missed his step. He was only a month old. I'm so sad, first time I've watched a nest and probably the last.

Thank goodness one's returned. This nest watching has been an absolute roller coaster for me. I've known them since they were eggs and have been looking in several times each day. I still can't get English on my tablet or phone but I'm watching out for any new blog which I'll pop in a translator. Yesterday's escapee was still downy so I'm worried that he won't get back. Fingers crossed for him.
Carrot, you should have been on here a few years ago. Several of us were watching a kestrel cam in Dorset. The runt of the chicks (tiny) managed to survive against all the odds. It was a helter skelter 3 weeks or so. The year after the same happened again and the year after that the female was killed by a peregrine. The male paired up again and succefully raised a brood.
Sadly, that nest isn't filmed any more.
There's a long thread on here about the tiny years, but I can't find it.

I think he's the stronger one who left on Monday, yesterday's leaver was still a bit downy. I've just read the latest blog and they say the younger one flew off yesterday but I was watching and he fell sideways after missing his footing stepping down from the wood to the pole. Seems a bit odd that they should lie.
