8:11 am - Harriet has left the nest.. Jambo finds a few scraps

There's not much left for Jambo.. so Jambo moves back towards the back of the nest.

8:12 am - Harriet returns with a clump of nesting material

She settles in with the chicks... Jambo is the one sitting up at the back.

I'm going to leave them now... I have a busy weekend and won't be watching the cam

Happy Canada Day Weekend everyone !!!

I see what you mean FFF.....I hope that Jambo can make the move, yet, will be wary.

Sunday July 1st, 2018

It is with a heavy heart that I report the passing of Jambo. The little one passed away in the late afternoon - siblicide/starvation is the cause of death.

These are the posts from SuzAnne on the day Jambo's suffering finally came to an end.

R.I.P littleone...

you are free to fly in the heavens now...

I am so sorry FFF....thank you for warning me about the possibility. I had checked in over the weekend multiple times to see and Jambo was OK at that time. I had hoped for you to see a successful fledge. I found her post about Dunrovin and Hellgate interesting, with intruders and food shortage.

You take care FFF...I know this is hard on you. Jambo, soar!

Thank-you for your kind words Bev and carolyn...

SuzAnne has made an announcement as to what will become of Jambo's body. I already knew she would do this and with it happening before banding this year - Jambo will be laid to rest much sooner that Hoot was last season.

These 2 s'caps were also included with the announcement.

Quote from SuzAnne " Jambo's smaller size compared to the other two really worked against him. Once behind when sufficient fish failed to come, he could never catch back up."

Quote from SuzAnne " The 2018 sign will contain all three chick names: Wakati, Congo, and Jambo "

Suzanne's post is lovely. I am glad Jambo will join them in their long term memories. I am also glad you knew FFF that is what they would do. We are honored to be able to see their lives, even when short.

Wakati turned 5 weeks yesterday and Congo turns 5 weeks old today - both are doing well with Wakati still being the dominant one of the two.

weather update

This morning finds both chicks and Harriet on the nest.. Harriet leaves for a bit - returning back to the perch awhile later. Fish begging is heard from one of the chicks on the nest.
