Semi-gloss

Remember the "Gargoyles by the sea" from 26 June 2015?  I went back to check on them, so here's an update:


All four raven chicks appear to be doing well.  They've grown quite a bit in the 12 days between these visits.  The chicks are now ~3.5 weeks old.  


I'm guessing they probably have a couple more weeks in the nest.  After fledging, they'll stay in the area for at least a few weeks, still being fed by the parents. 

It's fun to see their glossy feathers, and the development of classic raven postures and behaviors.
