Comment: This seems to be the only observed nest where the youngest chick wasn't eliminated (eaten).
Comment: Yes, it is always painful to see them get rid of the youngest ones. I was very worried for the youngest here, but thankfully, it seems they made it and are growing.
Comment: The Kergu nest is still ahead of us, the late chicks will hatch there...
