Strong fighting spirit in D2.  Praying for success!

DH2 must be the proper designation.  Sure glad parent showed up....at least 'til the down is dry.  Think that's the longest post-hatch we've ever seen!

I feel very sad that precious DH1 has died. Its presence in this nest will be missed. I just tuned in at the time DH2 was hatching. Hoping for the best for this little one.

I have to laugh at Little Survivor -
Mom gets up and his lil head pops up, waving back n forth, disappears, pops up again.  He looks tough.  I havent caught a feeding yet

took a cute pic off explore

Beak met beak at about 8 after the hour.  Little one said Yummmm
Keep up working on it.  It took time for HM (?) to find the right hole, and the hole had to stop bobbing.

So relieved they are figuring out feeding.  Little fuzzball is cutest ever.
