'habit' says 7-8 weeks for 'fledging!' Guess I should record when I saw them first, which is some ?weeks? after they hatched; they stay in the donut-hole of the nest for a while, to develop.

Hope we'll get to see them practicing by flying from nest to tree on other, east side of the creek. In the past, they spend a lot of time practicing that way.
