A lot of wing stretching from these two chick. Abusing Mom. Growing on schedule comparitively. This nest is furthest from the water. It's about a half a mile.

Clearly two chicks but I am suspecting a third. Waiting to verify. Nest seems healthy and active.

Great timing for activity in this nest today. Both were present. Nest building was going on and the male made few short flights. 05/31/14 8am

Saw the male flying across the highway and that is how I found the nest. Female was tending the next. Lots of commercial traffic.
