The Skua chicks on the point have mostly all hatched now and the surveying continues. I went out with MVT last week and weighed the chicks and then measured their wingspans. Some of the parents are pretty docile and let you get on with it while protesting loadly. Others attack you so there is a need for hardhats and work gloves to fend them off. Nest number 3 is the worst and specialise in high speed passes where they wack you hard in the face with their feet. I was leaving their nest about 100 yards away when one of the parents got me hard it stung for quite a while and the impact was heard a ways away. This nest is in site of the tower so they get quite a lot of entertainment to pass the time.
