The snow buntings have done their initial work by constantly feeding the chicks until they all left the nest within two days. It has been very entertaining to follow the activity, although the work concentration has sometimes been slightly questionable. In any case, this is something that needs to be set up next summer as well. Maybe with a bit better camera...
