I really enjoyed watching the feeding video, Jo. Thanks for posting the link. :D Amazing to see Phoenix swallow that fish whole! I may show the video to the Kinderchicklets sometime next week.

From what one of the group members is saying the egg could stay there indefinately or at some point the parents might dispose of it. Hard to know. If it stays Doug says he will get it after they leaving for the salmon fishing.
Jo:
Is it common for them to keep the other egg - will it go bad - or do the eventually either eat it or toss it form the nest.
The first 2 minutes are very cute - Phoenix discovers his feet. I can't believe how huge they are. At first I thought it was the camera angle - but if you watch further you see Phoenix standing up and those feet really are quite big. This must be the gangly adolescent stage (?). Either way - he/she's awfully cute.

Yes Phoenix is growing like weeds. I watched the video and he just swallowed that fish like no big deal. Good going Phoenix!
Ellie:
Thanks Jo........that was a good video ;) I haven't checked in on Phoenix for awhile and can't believe how big he has gotten. He sure made quick work of the fish and his crop sure got full quickly :o He's still sleeping with the other egg also. Thanks again.
