Young difficult to tell from parents


The young ospreys are the same size as their parents now.  If you watch the webcam often enough you will see Fishin' or Wishin' extending their long wings and exercising them in preparation for their first flight which should be within the next 2 or 3 weeks.

Can you tell which of the 4 ospreys are the two young birds?
