Looking back is for the birds

Last time I updated this (May 5) we had eight eggs. No more were laid, and after a week or so of incubating we started to get some chicks:


It was probably never likely that all eight would hatch and grow. Indeed, two never made it (not sure if they never hatched or died soon after) but the remaining six are doing well and growing rapidly:


And I did have a nice video clip of them all cheeping away but I'm having difficulty getting it to load :(
