Pécsi Piroska Krisztina:

On Tuesday at 11.30 a.m. I got the news from one of our dear observers that the third chick had hatched from the brood box. The attached pictures show the moment of hatching.

Its emergence was expected, as it was already sufficiently developed and practiced the flight movements. In the last days it regularly flew out onto the iron bars next to the brood box and back into the nest.

Of course, we keep an eye on the young, who are no longer waiting for their parents in the corn, but in the trees near the post. They feed their chicks in the same way, as it will be a long time before they can feed on their own.

First they have to learn to fly safely, then they can accompany their parents on the hunt. During their autumn migration they stay with their parents, who feed them even when necessary.

The smallest chick remains in the aviary where she is fed and is gaining strength.

Whether or not we see the young still in the brood box is not a matter of law. There have been occasions when several have flown back and spent time in the nest, but there have also been years when we have not seen them on camera after fledging. Now the safety of the nest is no longer vital to them.
