Just check back on the video after several days and see that the chicks are flying! Yea! Just watched what appeared to be a short "test flight" by one of the chicks briefly into the air from a side perch of the nest, rising briefly, then back to the perch, then finally taking off. It flew past its father on the larger perch (I'm assuming it was the father) and a split second later the father took off, too, in the same direction.
