Good job to both hobby Mom and precious chick who is growing healthily ! So glad Mom is getting better in feeding! Heartbreaking for the younger chick who had passed but as a first time female with a new man made nest,i believe she is indeed learning through experience! Thankyou Lady Hawk❤
Hello Max and thank you for the nice comment ♥ I agree with you - Mom is getting better in her feedings. The feeding after this one was good too! I think that it was just an unfortunate incident with the nest design and losing #2 this year. I know that WW said they are taking this into consideration to fix the design for next season. Mom is learning each day how to raise her chick which is a beautiful thing to see! Thanks for watching and have a great day! 🥰
Hello ptnickb yes this was a good feeding - there was another one after this that was good too so I feel pretty confident that we have passed a milestone now and this chick should continue to grow strong. ♥ Thanks for watching and always offering great comments and positive thoughts!! TC
This is absolutely looking promising, Sweetheart lil one making its way to Mom is a big relief! Keeping hopeful this Beautiful Hobby chick is a Survivor and fighter May it grow stronger and thrive each day ❤🙏🐥 Thankyou so very much Dear Lady Hawk 💞🌹 For sharing these Beautiful moments with us greatly appreciated ❤ I hope you get some Good rest my friend and wish you and all Friends a Wonderful Tuesday 🌟🤍💚🌻⚘🥰🤗
💕💕So glad that Mommy Hobby fed her oldest chick well and so sad for her youngest chick who wasn't as lucky. ❤️💔 RIP sweet chick #2. 🌈🐥💔 Praying fervently that her oldest chick keeps growing up healthy and thriving. 🙏🌱🙏 May God bless and protect this precious hobby family. 🙏💞🙏 Thank you very much, Lady Hawk. Take care and be blessed. 💐💙💕❤️🐥💗🌈🐥💕💙
Aah that was a good feeding finally 🤗. It was funny how Mom pushed her chick next to the egg she wanted to incubate 😊. I am so 😢 for chick#2 it's so unfair ...
Hello Diane yes I am sad too over the loss of #2. Hopefully next season they will make the necessary modifications to the nest construction so this does not happen again. ♥ Mom seems to be figuring it out now with #1 moving closer to her to get fed too ♥
Finally 🙏 Probably breakthrough moment for the remaining lil hobby chick 🐥❤🎉🤗 All should be better from now on 😅💕🥰 Thank you for soothing my bruised soul from previous events in this nest dear Lady Hawk 😅❤💐🍓 💞 Now I can go to sleep peacefully 💤😴✨😊🤗
Hello EmiW I think so too! 💕 It has been sad with so many losses on the nests recently. I think that the oldest Hobby chick should be big enough now to reach out to Mom with its beak from any place on the rails. So sad the nest construction prevented her from being able to feed #2. She is a good Mom ♥
I’m sure this has been talked about but the design of the nest seems to be a problem. Is that how they’d be naturally? By that I mean so deep with high, steep sides? She could be standing right next to the chick for easy feeding rather than awkwardly up on the edge.
Hello Hugh and thank you for your question. Wildlife Windows commented on the nest construction this year versus the previous years and they found the Hobby's like this design in general but this year the rails were a bit too high. Last year we had a different female and she did not encounter any problems feeding her two chicks which fledged successfully but this year we have a new Mom which may have also played a role in the feeding and her positioning on the rails. Here is what they posted about the nest: " We have been watching the camera and watching the chat comments. There has been much discussion about the nest basket / female feeding the chicks. This has been concerning.We have been studying hobbies for approx. 20 years and been using these artificial baskets for nearly as long. We do make them quite deep as the hobbies do like this (like a crow nest) as it does offer them protection from passing predators and wind. However, this particular nest has created challenges for this new female. Problem is we couldn’t do anything about this at this time. Firstly, our permits in the UK would not allow this kind of intervention and even if we could get a permit to make alterations this is a bad time to be disturbing the nest. The chicks are very small and so vulnerable to predators (magpies/sparrowhawks/woodpeckers etc.). If we were to go in and make alterations and the chicks were predated while the female was off the nest this would be disastrous. As we thought the female has found a way to feed the chicks and they have got through the first few crucial days of life, they are getting bigger every day. We will need to take these last few days as learning experience and be aware that the finest of margins can make a difference. Even people who have been doing things for a long time can learn things. Setting up a live stream on a wild hobby nest from the start of the breeding process is an extremely difficult thing which is why you will find this is the only live hobby nest camera in the whole of Europe. Enjoy and fingers crossed these two chicks make it to fledging."
Hello the first time Mom could not reach the youngest chick to properly feed it and it passed away. The nest rails were too high for her to reach down - she was able to reach the oldest chick. They will be looking at the design of the nest rails for next year so this does not happen again.

Lady HAWK, Where are the remains of the 2nd Chick that passed away??
Is the 3rd Egg Viable??
Thank you for the coverage. ❤
The body is still next to the egg. I don't think the egg can hatch
Hello Bea the 3rd egg is not viable at this point. The youngest chick's remains are to the left and front of the nest bowl. Thanks for watching!!
Finally 🙏 Probably breakthrough moment for the remaining lil hobby chick 🐥❤🎉🤗 All should be better from now on 😅💕🥰 Thank you for soothing my bruised soul from previous events in this nest dear Lady Hawk 😅❤💐🍓 💞 Now I can go to sleep peacefully 💤😴✨😊🤗

They should have investigated a bit more about the bird nest habit.

Why did the youngest die? 💔
Hello the first time Mom could not reach the youngest chick to properly feed it and it passed away. The nest rails were too high for her to reach down - she was able to reach the oldest chick. They will be looking at the design of the nest rails for next year so this does not happen again.
