Four young birds, three females and a male, amble out to the ledge every day, mostily in the cool evening, and flap their wings as it takes time before the flegdlings can fly with precision.

We are sad to report that Sally passed away on Tuesday and Amelia, who was first out of the box, passed away overnight on Wednesday.

Before she died, Amelia was taken to a rehabber because Bob and others had observed some strange behavior. The rehabber picked her up yesterday evening and Amelia seemed to be doing okay.

Right now, it's unknown what caused the deaths of Amelia and Sally. Our biologists are going to perform necropsies (autopsies) on the two birds in order to try to figure out what happened and, more importantly, to try to protect the other two birds.

(How very sad, losing another 2 this season) Fly free girls
