Brian thought turning about the same
as (Hallett), thought fewer 2 chick roots.
Feb 27 Chick 361 or 57 was fed by adult. In begging
from adult it assumed the hunched position
with however the wings raised up & beat
simply at wrist something like
that. Chick runs toward ad with wing moving
back & forth, limpness of "hand" gives it movement
a "rowing" motion.
Outter streaks call uttered by 2 flying chicks
closing & diving at each other. Adults utter same
call in this other situation
