They are growing chicks and Mom and Dad intend to make sure they do just fine!

Mom just flew off to pick off a small bird (took her less than a minute).  More food for kiddies!   :o

irenekl, I thought their crops looked pretty stuffed.  Do you disagree?  I put the image up full zoom to see (blurry, but still bigger).  It was hard to tell a little because they faced the other way mostly, but when one turned sideways I thought I saw a nice big crop.

Yeah, they sure are active.  I'll give them that but it sure was a small portion of food.  And that honking....hadn't really noticed that before.  Hopefully mom will come back with something more for them to eat.

Hmmm.....mom just left the nest, either her or pa flew in after a minute with a very tiny morsel of something to eat.  And I mean tiny.

there's a feeding going on right now!  looks like everyone is getting a share and all look very healthy and active!  ;D

I like how one of them finally shoved everyone aside to get to the food - and the way they are trying to take it from each other's beaks!
