    Intruder tried to land.  EJ basically told it to: "Nae chance pal"

    Great action shot Lynette.

      Not my shot but credit to Djoan S, Heron77

    And as I type Odin drops in with food. Chicks ready for theirs but ^Titch decides to go to far end of nest, has turned round and is at theback.#1 and #2 are getting their share and #3 is pushing forwards.  Titch finding it hard to get some but is still trying. Loosing out a bit this time but I'm sure EJ will give it some.

  • True Annette - hadn't thought of that. EJ more sanguine about who gets fed first too, although first hatched does get the 'special' attention - it's just that somehow EJ seems to know she can feed chick  3 up cos the fish will be coming in. Chick two now seems to get 'left' out a bit now but does get its share in the end.

    Enjoy the evening fans - I've gotta go to work now. Is that fish  3 or 4 BTW?

  • Fish!

    For some reason the hooker seems to be playing scrum half.

     

    Okay so now  the classic front row is back in action.

     

    Warning!  This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar.  Approach with extreme edginess.

  • is it me or is the cam freezing now and then? Doesn't look like Titch is getting much - needs to go around on the outside at this point...

  • # 1 & 2 were very hungry. Titch got stuck between #1 & 2 and under their wings. It only got two bites 

    EJ gave Titch 3 scraps she found on the nest . It will be very hungry when the next fish is delivered

  • Titch doesn't seem to be getting a look in at the moment, its trying so hard to get some but EJ is concentration on #1 and #2 Did get a piece just then.  Paying the price for wacking older siblings. EJ just looked around, is the intruder still around.  Older sibling puts its wing on Titch as if to say, no go, but Titch is having none of it and is trying so hard to get a share. No, sorry, wing is still holding Titch down.

    Poor Titch isn't getting much of a look in at the moment. Hang on, its trying again and this time success!!! whew!!!

  • Poor Titch was in the wrong place to start with ... in submission after attacking one of the older ones for no reason! I wonder if it will learn from that? ... I doubt it!

  • #1 has gone to the far edge, #2 is still plying for food and Titch is still caught up between them. Bit of sibling rivalry here. The wee one didn't get much at all this feed. Maybe next time.

    1 fish demolished, EJ doing a bit of late housework and then going to settle the "cherubs" down.

  • Clip of 1st 6 mins of last feed. Only #1 and #2 fed in this clip:
