Hatch day

May 4th, 2008 by sophie

We have babies. Well Karma and Buzz do actually. There were eight eggs and we think we have counted seven chicks, but it is very difficult. There was one egg left until late this afternoon, but that has disappeared, so hopefully there are now eight.

Buzz has been in and out feeding all day, while Karma has alternated between sitting on the chicks and going out for food. Here’s some bits of film from through the day.

    Congratulations! It’s great to see the parents switch into feeding mode – they’ve got so much work to do for the next few weeks.
