Kaia gives fish to the chicks.
But she takes them back again. The fish are probably not soft enough.

06:42 Kaia does not want to fly away. Karl II nibbles Kaia.
So he preens Kaia on the head. That is so wonderful.

#1, #2 and #3 have breakfast.
I think #4 will have to wait until the food is softer.

09:00 Kaia gives one fish. #2 eats the fish.
She covers the chicks. Karl II is preening.
Seeing the whole family in one nest is a rare sight here.
Simply beautiful to enjoy!

#4 had nothing to eat today and is now in the front.
But the feed doesn't fit in #4. Maybe it could tear off a small bite.
Waiting for the next feeding.

Kaia gives some fish. It is not much. All the chicks seem to eat something.
#4 got something. But it was not so much.
Karl II watched attentively. He will have seen it.
