.....And then there were three!

First there was Ma and Pa Pied Shag, along came chick number one, closely followed by another two. By the time I got back to the nest there were three hatchlings all equal in strength, no favouritism from the parents here.

A month down the track both parents head to sea to feed leaving the juveniles alone for longer periods of time. On their return they continue to feed the juveniles but probably this will only be for a short time, soon they will all vacate the nesting area.

Another backblip - I'm slowly catching up :)
