Dad settled in for a couple of minutes, then up again for another view of the kids.
He flew off and Mom was back on duty. She didn't get much of a break.

10:58 AM Chicks eating several fish that Dad regurgitated for them.

10:59 AM Little wings are out! Hard to believe how small the wings are now and how enormous when grown.

11:00 AM Dad swallows fish again. He cleaned up all the fish and morsels leftover.
