Yes, the parents will continue to feed the chick that is in the box until he/she leaves. There was a food drop prior to the first fledge this morning. After the second fledge, mom came back and took the leftovers. My guess was that she was headed out to feed one of the fledges.<br /><br />They may or may not return to this box. I doubt anybody will return today. That would be for the fledgling like you or I threading the eye of a needle. In order for them to get back to the box, they have to be able to fly well enough to gain the altitude needed to get up there. . .plus, aim for the tiny box and then stick the landing. Probably neither of them can do that yet. I know at least one visited the box last year. Hopefully, they will come back.<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the videos. .If I weren't on the east coast, I would have never caught the first fledge. . so, I got very lucky!!skygirlbluenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7028629912394344190.post-3375555654917113912012-06-29T12:02:41.362-06:002012-06-29T12:02:41.362-06:00Do the parents continue to feed the youngest until...Do the parents continue to feed the youngest until he leaves and do all 3 return to the nest site at night?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7028629912394344190.post-63212245806406986412012-06-29T10:39:50.182-06:002012-06-29T10:39:50.182-06:00I told my daughter that I predicted that 2 would f...I told my daughter that I predicted that 2 would fledge by Friday. Wow was<br />that right on. When they start that furious flapping on the edge you just know they are going. We hoped that someone got a video of it. I didn't turn on my computer till 7 ish. I am usually up by 6 am. Thanks Skygirlblue. You were right on. (same as last year). We love those videos. I hope the kids do ok.<br />Liz- has anyone discussed genders or names? hey aren't you on vacation?<br />WilliWilli Christensennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7028629912394344190.post-38394256319067083332012-06-29T10:39:43.825-06:002012-06-29T10:39:43.825-06:00I've been watching these guys since they hatch...I've been watching these guys since they hatched and this was so exciting to see!
