notes by bev, bcaw
youngster had to be rescued from ground yesterday. some students found her and called Cilia. she put her in a gum tree by tower. adults were keeping an eye out I thought the winds may be too strong. She may need more help yet, as cila put her in tree but that would be low
talons crossed.

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.

Update on the unhatched eggs from Cilla in the box cam chat (Nov 23):
"I had a look at the eggs. One was clearly unfertilised. The other was, I think fertilised, but there was no chick inside. It exploded (big POP) all over me and it was just yellow liquid. No chick remains. I’ll do updates later. I’ll also try to get some confirmation from the museum where there are candling experts (I am not)."
