Your message is the first I have had suggesting a chick in the RH nest (although they are about due), so I have posted this reply to the list in general, asking if anyone else going to Kelly's today could try to get a look into the RH nest. 

At the risk of repeating myself from yesterday, I think the best position to see into this nest is the Painted Snipe Viewing Mound adjacent to Bittern hide.  Probably needs a scope or a very large lens toget a decent look.

We went to Kelly's about 6pm yesterday.  As already noted, there are 2 chicks on lower LH nest.  But I wondered whether there was a larger chick in RH nest.  I saw  a fluffy something as the parent was sort of crouching, to her RHS.  Could not see a chick's bill though.  Any other reports of that?
