Radisson - 2012 / Ivy & Princess
jadoo:
...just saw ivy bring in a good-sized late lunch for the chicks - princess was struggling with it a little; however, it looked like it still had it's head. I thought that (aeons ago) TPC mentioned how meticulous our falcons were with removing the head of any prey before bringing it to the nest, something about a particular bacteria found in the head and neck of some prey. Was I dreaming this? (Or, worse yet, think it up on my own, and am now trying to involve other people in my delusions???)

Isn't the bird being prepared to be eaten as a meal usually de-feathered prior to it being brought to the nestbox? :-\ Chicks sure appear to be enjoying it, whatever it is. :D

This looks like a tough old pigeon. I'm not sure who's getting more - mom or the chicks ???

I don't notice the size difference anymore between late #4 chick and the others.
