Mark Nash Reports:
July 12 - 2011 PM watch
The great news is that the evening watch documented Baby H flying incredibly well, as she is mastered adult like landings, gaining altitude and staying aloft for much longer flights! She is plucking her own food,,, but still looking to mommy Quest to actually feed her half of the time. The other half of the time, she mantles over the food given to her by Quest and aggressively protects it. No sharing with mom!
Quest continued to nag Kendal throughout the evening tonight, and even I’m getting mad at her!! This poor little guy just can’t seem to escape the constant nagging. Oh my goodness!
On another note, I have finally got a chance to down-load and post some of the photos that I was able to shoot of Quest yesterday. It appears that all of the constant “picking” and “preening” that I’ve been noticing has clearly been for more than just general hygiene.
Quest has been working on her radio harness as most of the lower abdomen straps have been ripped and torn away and is now quite visible and flapping loosely. While this presents no danger to Quest, we just may see the satellite radio transmitter and the remaining harness falling off over the next week or so.
For all of the watchers, we are asking you all to also closely watch Quest where ever she is visible, as we expect that the solar powered radio transmitter just may be falling off sooner than later, especially if Quest keeps ripping at the harness. Also take note that the harness that I outfitted Quest three years ago is pinkish red coloured and is not quite visible.
Please also keep your eyes peeled on Quest where ever she may be, as you just might see the transmitter falling off. We are very interested to recover the transmitter and return it to the DEC.
Stay tuned and please advice………
