Re: Black Eagles Nest in South Africa
FEEDING
Finally: Mum and Dad get a big prey.
It's so funny to see:
The chick can not wait. It hacks and biting the prey.(and also in Mum's Talon & Beak )
It jumps up to Mama's beak. And Mum's pieces are too small...
So, and now beak clean:
Mum forces the chick away from the flesh and lies before: sleep now!

The prey looks as if it will be enough for several more feedings for the little greedy one

18:25 Just a few bites before dark ...
Thus, the 3 meals today were for the Chick: A large and two smaller ones.
There is a video on YouTube of the food delivery today (not by me):

And here's a video about hunting on Hyrax (or Dassie 's) , their preferred prey:

Great to see that there was food at last. I looked around there a bit, but the chick has no name yet.
Right now chick is home alone and sleeps.
