Meanwhile, At the Other End of the Island

 We have twins.
 They were born a little later in the season
 This youngster is perched on a little shrub not far from the nest
 About 4 feet above the water
 Really considering flying here,

 But no,
 Time for a scratch instead

 And a little screeching for Mom
 This one is a bit more adventurous.
 Mom is nearby, on a piling, cheering the baby on...
 We're practicing balancing and flapping here

 Along with some serious posing
 Nice profile

 Best side?




 Pouffing up. I love when they do this!

 Pouffing and flapping!

 Great form, and oh, so close to flying!
