No further feeds or absences since the last report above. A happy nest with full tummies as darkness fell.

a hard attack.



For all new viewers:
The younger chick is killed by the older one (Cainism). Anna will feed the dead chick to the living one. Nature wastes nothing.
If you don't want to see that, don't look here for a few days.

After the feeding, Anna sat on her chicks, drowsing a bit but with her head out. She was awake right through to the very last light, when at 23:16 she could be seen to be busy down amongst the youngsters. Preening perhaps but it really was too dark to tell.
