EJ is having a funny moment. Chicks tucked under her.
Happy watching, back in the morning.

Evening all: Been out all day; just finished dinner; very tired and may not stick around much this evening. Thanks Lynette for getting us started.
Odin just flew in with a good-sized fish. EJ up immediately (chicks too!); Odin left; feeding under way.
WOW Odin went fishing early He just delivered a nice size fish
Titch being fed first
Formerly known as Barbara Jean
OK. Titch in middle,#1 at left and #2 at right. All lined up and behaving nicely and getting bites. Nice to see.
Well, looks like #2 fell asleep over Titch, but #1 still gamely holding out for more bites!
That fish didn't last long . The chicks are in a heap and EJ just swallowed the tail
Oh!. EJ choking down the rest of the fish - and I think there goes the tail. Hmmm. Hope Odin wasn't planning on stopping by for leftovers... Chicks settling down again; EJ trying to but where to start? Such a large pile of chicks there.
As you say, Barbara Jean - they made very quick work of that one.

LOL you are right. Odin has probably realized the days of left overs are pasted. He will be lucky just to keep this hungry brood fed until EJ can start helping
Morning Annette & Barbara Jean (and everyone else online)
Just opened the cam to see final part of feeding
These chicks are getting so huge that EJ has real troubles getting them all under her wings
