Growing fast ...

It is quite amazing how quickly the little chicks grow. Barely 5 days old, and they have already more than doubled in size ! Testament to the fantastic foraging job that Gus & Glo are performing. They are bringing in all sorts of insects and long may it continue...

Hungry little mouths greet their parent's every arrival :

I can now happily confirm that there are indeed EIGHT chicks, and more impressively at this stage, is that there doesn't seem to be an apparent runt, more kudos to Gus & Glo's parenting skills.

It really is amazing that even at just 4 days old, you can already see the wings beginning to form, and some are already sporting little feather tufts !! All before they have even opened their eyes !!
