oh, dear.

I just noticed that Chris has added a "donate" button asking for any amount at all to help defray the cost of the cam, which he is supporting entirely on his own this year. He writes

The cost of providing this site’s streaming video averages $19 per day, so far. If you can help offset that expense, please use the PayPal “Donate� button. Thanks!

yikes - $19 a day!

Those 5 critters are pretty funny at this stage!!  The general effect is of Brownian motion consisting mostly of falling down without standing up first. Every time I see it I can’t understand it: an owlet is already completely down, and it falls anyway.

An unusually orderly moment:

Great picture.I love it !

I was hoping to find a shot of all 5, but all I can find is 4. Hope they're all still there!

[Donna]

Ooooohhh, hmmm. Hope so too! Probably under the pile!

...and the little one is MUCH littler, easy to miss in the crowd.
It hatched days after the other four.
In this capture it's in the front row and still looks tiny.

here's a clear one of all 5

I'm still waiting to find one with at least 10 eyes to the cam, but in the meantime, these are nice
