Mom feeds on the leftovers. The chick that was helping himself continues to beg for more. When the feast is over they all collapse in the pile, too stuffed to bother with wing exercise Smile

The kids woke up, walked around, then all faced the wall for some bizarre reason known only to falcons Grin

This little guy couldn't figure out why either and decided to sit and wait for breakfast.

This little guy kept opening wide repeatedly, probably to expel a pellet of undigested bits.

It's interesting to compare the development of these little guys to the photos showing the growth changes almost day by day at the following website:
