Again a large fish and feeding.

Bloody feeding

13:11 Madis brought a carp.






Piret fed the chicks.

Piret tries to eat a piece of fish what is stuck on a branch . She tries it a few times, but can't remove it. She has it in her beak completely, but it was stuck, so she spit it out. Again and again.

Was it a carp Macko, beautiful pictures!

The chicks are alone.

When I was a child we had a budgie with this name, Oldie. It was a lovely little bird.

Dad is back with fish. My favorite is chick nummer 3. I give him/her the name fridoline.

17:52 pm Piret and Madis are back with a new fish!

This was the already mentioned fish from 17:51 (Pontu)

About 17:51-18:09: feeding
18:10 Piret leaves
18:13 back
18:15 She leaves, comes back a moment later
18:16 Piret leaves again (upstairs), a moment later back. And away again
18:22 Landing noises

The last minutes of the feeding

18:40 Piret is in the nest
18:42 She leaves again
18:47 It´s raining

19:25 Perfect camouflaged

20.47

Family complete for a short time after Madis delivered the 14.47 fish

20:56 Greeting calls from upstairs?

20.56

Number 2 leaning on number ones back, who is becoming beautiful black stripes (feathers) in the whole length of its back.



Edit: looking again, I think a wing of number 3 is between the other 2 chicks. Correction It is the wing of number 1. All those wings and "golden" feathers are confusing.....

21:12 Piret landed
21:14 She leaves the nest again, but is audible in the background
21:19 Rustling from upstairs
