Thank you everyone! This tragic event was more painful than other losses I've had in the past. Now, I am watching the RTPF pair closely, since I can't move the daddy GS or two juvies right now. So far, they are leaving the juvies and dad alone. I've seen the RTPF cock scare a juvie off a branch, but no one is plucked or fighting now. I think removing the nest of hatchlings and Zelda gone made a difference. I hope one of the babies is a girl, she can be Zelda 2, LOL!

Hopefully things will stay quiet in the flight...that was such a traumatic experience for you and sweet Zelda. Fingers crossed 1 of your fledges is a female [-o<

Deborah,

So very sorry to hear this. I know you are devastated. But you were a wonderful bird mama to Zelda. She is at peace and flying high now.

Big hugs,
Michelle
