5/19, Sittin' Around

Early Thursday evening found one of the cathedral red-tail nestlings sitting quietly where it could just peak over the north side of the nest. A few minutes after I started watching, mama Isolde flew in to check on her babies.

She ended up spending about 15 minutes at the nest, so a feeding must have occurred.

For a few minutes afterwards, the two nestlings were briefly visible in their opposite positions.

But only just.
