Everything continues to proceed normally in the nest. The chicks are spending a lot of time exploring the ledge and starting to practice flapping.

Earlier, Apollo (presumably because this nestling is so small) was begging one of the adults for food inside the nestbox.
Here's a good shot of a couple of the chicks to document their size at the age of 4 weeks:
