16.20 E12 wingersizing
and standing on its feet for a few seconds
16.28 after a stretch H picked up the catfish and started feeding both,
E12... E13.... E12.... as E13 was going to get the second bite,
E12 was not amused and bonked E13 down -
"you have to wait, remember ?"

16.40 E13 waited and when already the half fish was eaten by E12, E13 snatched a bite.
After this first bite, E12 threatens E13 with its beak, ...
....but then E13 was allowed to eat, too
(watch the crop of E12)
and the fishtail goes to Harriet

M comes down to nest, takes H's fish, starts to eat, gives a bite to E13
H came down too, takes the fish away to other side
(the fish is quite stiff) and eats

M then wants to take the remained catfish head carcasse, but H does not allow,
poor M, doesn't get anything
M looks for other nestovers, then leaves the nest. H eats some of her fish,
then takes the catfish head carcasse, aaaah, she wanted it too, E13 is watching her....
....and gets a bite
H fed E13 also another bite of the fish, then moved over with the fish to other nest side.

17.40 M came back to nest, took again the remained catfish head carcass and gnats on it,
while H is eating from her fish on the other side, E13 watches them having their dinner
17.43 E13 carefully watch how Daddy gnats on that fishhead bone
while sun goes down

17.46 H carries her fish to other side and offers some bites to E13
17.48 M finished and took off the nest, H is tracking him and vocalize, even E13 tracks him
17.52 E13 moved over to E12, both resting
17.53 E13 discovers a morsel on a stick, picks it up, but beak not strong enough?
17.54 yeah, got it

18:00/04 You'd think they were so stuffed and couldn't eat more, but they COULD
E12 ...
.... as well as E13
watch those incredible fat crops
(reminding me on ponton boats or bridges )

18.07 M came back to nest, eyes the remaining fish ....
.....but H doesn't want him to eat that remain, wants to save it and starts to distract him by suddenly working very important in the rails
Sure he took his duty and worked together with her, H was displacing a few sticks, M took the big ones and placed them back to the rails
....and he so much would have had this remaining fish
