Collage of the 4 pm Feeding


Have to leave but will keep the cam up for awhile yet

Love the scaps Debs! Thank you. As much as this is one of my favorite nests, I haven't had any time to get here except a few minutes here and there on the run. So glad to see both babies doings so well!

Thanks so much for all the pictures and videos, Debs! I wasn't able to be online very much today - and am glad that you've provided a handy summary!

I'm afraid Big isn't always the little angel she was today - we have had a few days when food was scarce, and she made very sure that she would be fed first! But fortunately the parents usually do a good job providing for their chicks, so both are doing well.

Afternoon Maine

Darlene, Judyb was my pleasure I love this nest and family

I saw two feedings close together and have lots of scaps to share.

120 pm
The chicks are having some alone time; I am sure Mom is perched
just out of our view.

Are to see the chicks at times they blend into their surroundings so well
but they are there.



205 pm
Peekaboo can you see me......


Hear some calling then Mom lands in the nest she came in from the
9 oclock area and she was close by.

212 pm
Time for a feeding; both chicks are seated side by
side and Mom is feeding them.

I thought this was Dad initially but do think it is Mom.




220 pm
Mom moves the feeding pauses abit then
the feeding resumes again.

225 to 235 pm
Feeding

235 pm
We can see the older chick is still reaching for food
and she has a bit of a crop.





I be bigger Mom

237 pm
Mom is ever so beautiful.....and we can see
Big in this capture too; Lil One is blending in too
well to see.



255 pm
Another feeding
