Apr 15, 2023 18:17 | #22 And here we are, 4 weeks and 1 day after the first shots were taken. We're getting close to the first flight! Marty has been hopping around on the branches and is starting to take little flights to another branch further away on the tree. Biff will hop around on the branches, but stays mostly near the nest.

johnfosteruk Goldmember  More info | Apr 16, 2023 02:33 | #23 Fantastic Series Wayne. Keep them coming. WayneS wrote in post #19503277  We have named the babies Biff and Marty. Biff is the bigger of the two is much more outgoing. Standing up tall and stretching fairly often. Here's a little conversation I imagine happening between them in.  Biff: "I am the captain now!" Dad: "The hell you are!" Fast forward a few weeks.... Biff: "Yeah, we'll see dad!" WayneS wrote in post #19506785 And getting some more strength in their wings. And a fine pair of trousers/pants too!! WayneS wrote in post #19506788 I was finally able to get a nice shot of them both standing next to each other yesterday.

Very much looking forward to flight shots.

sidknee Goldmember  More info | Apr 16, 2023 03:11 | #24 WayneS wrote in post #19500469 We found out we had a new set of chicks in the nest in our front yard 6 days ago, so of course I had to get to work. I plan to get shots from my roof at least once a week, and will be updating this thread so you all can watch them grow with us. Here are some shots from the first two days after we found them. The last shot is Dad. Excellent series Wayne, thanks for sharing. I'm very envious, we have common buzzards nesting here but their nest is hidden by the surrounding trees so I've never managed to see all of this. Top job!

It really is great to be able to just walk out my front door and see them. Wayne
