The chick was hatched on 13 june 2014.

Nestling period is about 100 days so it is going to fly one of these days O:V Looking very good now. It was alone in the nest. We were there from 8.00am right till noon

The parents were soaring far and wide in search of prey and not once did they land on the nest while we were there

Another outing! O/\

The grasshopper looks indeed like a little bird. Very colourful. O:V

And thanks for an update on Jono. So much better than the webcam. ^Q^
