From what I have seen of Lightning this morning, she still prefers that mom or dad feed her; she is not that keen on plucking the unlucky victim herself and then chowing down. So, she now has food lying around the nest. Mind you, she will fight for the food if she thinks the others want it. This reminds me of my dog, who may not want her food, but she does not want any other dog to have it, either. The more I watch the falcons, the more I see the similarities between them and our four-legged companions.
