Kia ora koutou (hello everyone) The Royalcam nest.

Since hatching at 286g on the 28th of January, the Royalcam chick at Signal Station Flat has grown to 3.1 kg on day 35 (Tuesday 4th of March). This is a big 1.1 kg increase on the weight from last week.


Mum, Dad and female chick!  :-*


The results are in. Signal Station Trig chick is a female & she weighed a whopping 3.1 kg! What are her parents feeding her-chick was fed 5/6x over the last couple of days.
Good thing Rangers Colin & Scott used the green basket!

MCS Magnifica and our magnificent chick.


In this photo you can see 4 nests with chicks. SSTrig Chick is the one in the middle, you can see the cam stand just a few feet away from her. Now you can see where other chicks are located.
