Sibling piles

Cuddles at the Cornell Red-tailed hawk nest.

K-1 stretches out their wings, and K-3 gets a cozy wing blanket.

And more from Satakunta Osprey nest #1, where the chicks are still too small to arrange themselves any other way than in a pile. Warning for some headless fishes in the nest if that's something you'd like to avoid seeing.

Little A3 awake and looking around when mom got up and left the nest for a moment early in the morning.

A1 (left) and A3 having a peaceful feeding together, A2 is more sleepy than hungry this time.

Alma with her clutch of wiggly, squeaky chicken wings. From left to right: A3, A1, A2.

A less peaceful interaction between A1 and A3 while mom decorates and A2 again sleeps. The littlest one makes clear they're no pushover, and starts a fight with the oldest sibling. Didn't win it, but good effort.

Another feeding, with everyone in attendance. Left to right oldest to youngest. Good-sized crops on everyone by the end of the meal, relative to each chick's overall size.

No hatches yet at nest #3, but the female (Nuppu) has been acting pretty restless, and some viewers have reported hearing sounds from the eggs, so maybe tomorrow we'll have a pip? It'll be interesting comparing these three to newborn hatchlings - the oldest especially must be about triple their hatching size already.
