Young chicks

I only saw two of the three red tailed hawk hatchlings this morning.

I hope that the missing one is merely hiding.

Would hate to think that something else has occurred like falling out of the nest or being seized by a predator.

Will look again when I have a chance tonight or tomorrow morning.

You can start to see the juvenile feathers peaking out on the bird on the left, the fuzzy inchoate baby down now just starting to disappear.
