Today morning news about Yurruga :loveshower: :bow: before 12:00 AM.
Cilla Kinross:
Yurruga fledged at 0604 h this morning. He is fine. He flew for a bit, then landed on the ground near the base of the water tower. Some some staff found him, rang me. I caught him, checked him over then placed him in a tree nearby (actually visible from ledge cam). He was fine and hopefully will get the strength to fly more strongly over the next few days.

Below is a picture of him in the tree, just now

Amanda thank you!

Hm, I think the time for removing the eggs was not good. She had better waited for some days.
Diamonds reaction was normal at this time.

17:27 Diamond lands with prey, looks like a bigger bird, no starling for sure.
Image

She calls and looks around.
Image

17:28 She left with it again. X was on the ledge before, he left as he saw Di is coming.

Xavier in the bowl, seems like he is saying was that all, I want more eggies.
Image

18:54 Lovely Xavier, it seems he is sad, his look...but is only human thought.
Image

19:12 Xavier left.

Still a nice video about Yurrugas fledge by Elain:

Xavier has spent many hours in the nest since arriving at 6:46. Here Xavier's reaction when flying past, most likely Diamond. From the other camera could be seen :loveshower: :whistling:

Xavier makes a visit.
Image

He is stretching, beautiful feathers.
Image

16:18 He left...then the box is empty. He was already there at 15:50, further back is not possible. So I don't know, when he came.

Nice close up Diamond:
Image

A bit earlier at 16:27 Di and X in the box, Di on the stones. Xavier is not moving for some minutes :D , Di is calling a bit different like most.
Image

Xavier left after short conversation, seemed like Di wanted that he let her alone.
