11:26 One chunk of food actually did fall to the ground - the chick is trying to eat it

11:33 The mynah returns

11:35 The chick is aware of the visitor, but does not seem to care
11:37 Let's do some stretching (and flapping, and jumping in the air )
12:04 Haven't we met before?

12:07 The chick may not appear too confident, but T53 is no bully (anymore)
12:11 The white-headed guest likes sticks (this stick will eventually slip out of the vulture's grasp and down the cliff)
12:13 Do they come together for a chat?

15:27 Dad may well have been watching!
15:29 There's some begging (not as lively as earlier in the day)...
15:30 ... but little reward

15:36 The chick is unable to distinguish the parents from other griffons...

15:38 Hey you, why did you drive through a red light yesterday morning?
15:38 Both the tourists suddenly become alert
15:40 Something is going on out of view

16:45 OK, let's go and see some other flats in this neighbourhood, honey
16:46 And one by one they left
16:51 The camera operator then got bored of all these visits
The chick, with no other birds in view, is right in the centre of the image, all alone and exposed on his/her ledge.

16:52 The camera spends the best part of the late afternoon focused on the Eqyptians
18:34 The chicks have started to grow feathers
22:08 Good night, little griffon
The chick is now 104 days old. Though foreign visits to the nest have become the norm over the past few days, visitors to the nest are showing less aggression than they did say a month or even two weeks ago.
Have a good weekend, everybody!

Hello Marbzy
So is the chick now accepted, so to speak?
I'm surprised that this nest seems to be pretty lonely. Griffon vultures are colony breeders and very sociable. If I understand that correctly.
It will fly out soon ... .
Have a nice Sunday Marbzy for you too!

Between 13:00 and 13:25 the chick engages in lively exercise which involves jumping (both high jump and long jump) and flapping the wings, extending the wings as though for gliding, and picking up sticks from the ground.
13:27 The chick's developing into an exemplary juvenile with a couple of bare patches at the base of the neck
13:55 Here comes Dad
13:58 This is the first visit at the nest (at least) since 9:34
