Well, I'm afraid I have no happier news to report ...
As I earlier suspected, Mick does indeed appear to have gone AWOL ...
Molly is doing her level best to try and keep the remaining 3 chicks fed, but you can see that she is really struggling. I think she knows the writing is on the wall, but she is still doing all she can to try and keep the remaining chicks alive.
I think that to stand any chance, she will need to remove the perished chicks from the nest, and it looks highly unlikely that she will have the energy to perform such a major task.
Sorry that it's all doom and gloom again, we don't seem to be having much luck recently, but while there's life, there's hope ... So, let's see what tomorrow brings ..
