you're welcome Bev Wub

3:31 well well it is possible to fill him up! she offers the bite to others

3:35 and it's over! wow what a crop! that was a 30 minute feeding....might be a record

3:37 BR is getting the bed ready and two are already under her, don't how he and his crop are going to fit Laugh They polished off that prey whatever it was, I seen her offer the foot with some leg on it. No takers so she did it. The pigeon is likely up on the menu next

3:42 he pulled it off and BR pulled the greenery in close

4:19 BR came in with a stick, good timing huh? Had just checked the roast Titter

4:30 still up and preening herself and the chicks standing where she came in, at least one of the chicks is doing the same. Two poo shots have come flying out during it

4:41 BR still in same spot. I haven't gotten to even lay eyes on EZ today

can't stay but I'm sure glad today is turning out so good! Wub Out

HelloLori......

Great job today, Nanz & Lori, Bev & Thank You

4:47.... Red appears to be digging in nest bowl with back to cam.

4:52 BR grabs the meat & starts to eat & i think feed. The chicks are all in front of her.

She pauses momentarily, then continues. I can't see the chicks taking bites but they are all gathered close to her.

5:07......she's still going at it


5:12.....still pulling at the meat



5:15......she may be cleaning up the bowl now as she's not tearing at the meat any more.


5:18......this is the view since it started @ 4:52.

I can see that one shot you had trouble with a bmp my Tx. Change your program to jpeg and see if you have any more trouble. Shoot! but thanks for the great job Wub

okay your feeding was 5 my Tx and this is feeding 6

6:04 another feeding starts

feed says at 6:06 a wind gust got under BR;s tail almost causing a beak plant Laugh

6:14 there's at least one chick taking bites from BR right now

6:22 still going now I've lost track of where we're at Laugh eating does me in

Click on image to download

6:26 good grief, not sure they're taking bites but it sure looks like it. Yup! they are

6:30 finally! they've had enough and BR leaves as the chick gives a cute tilted-head look

wanted to give EZ some face time since I hadn't seen him all day! Wub

6:39 we have a sleeping pile of grey and white fuzzy sweetness

did you take a shot of the sweet pile?

7:30 cuties still alone preening, stetching and pooing. It's very obvious right now who's who, not in this shot but when they're up
