And here is the BIG event from start to finish. 
Can't believe how blessed I feel to be:
a. at home for this
b. be actually there at the right time!!
All the planets and stars aligned for me this morning....I'm so grateful.
(Unfortunately, up to now my old TVs sound had been fine, but this morning it decided to have a weird electrical buzz, so I had to turn down the volume at bit, but I was nearly deafened by the chicks anyway, so maybe it was not a bad thing!
)
So - Day 20 - Fledge day - goodbye little ones.
For those who just want to watch the chicks leave....just watch the first minute or two for Chick 1, then about 4 mins in for Chick 2, then skip right on to the end...as its 20mins long!!! Chick number 3 needed a bit more encouragement.
