I apologize... In my excitement... I posted PH thread in this one. I am sorry. I just deleted both posts..

Not a problem at all, JudyH...I removed them for you!

3:10pm

Both home. Dad reclining in the nest bowl again. I think he thinks he should be incubating and it is his turn

4:01 pm
DT flies in with a food object


It's a bird of some kind. Dark feathers, but white under feathers. She wastes no time stripping the feathers and begins eating.

4:06pm
Dad now flies down to join in the feast. Didn't have much luck. I think he got one bite


4:08pm - Dad flies off - perhaps to find his own supper

4:10 pm - DT puffs out her feathering and stands amidst a nest bowl full of white feathers ( we will never know if they shed any more down or if it's just feathers)

4:30pm

Cam zoomed in and shows DT picking at the pieces surrounded by feathers


I am not sure that was a feathered dinner. The down doesn't show any flight feathers, just the soft under down of a mammal



DT is back on the love branch with super close up. She is in need of a beak bath.

Some more close ups






Don't Mess with Me!


While I was processing these images, Dad came home - left again

Great scaps Bet, she is a messy eater

I have been getting a spinning circle all evening

Darlene...The mods on the cam chat said that the cam IS down!!

Thanks Mary, I'll call it quits for the night then!
