Another great feed to watch. All chicks full and settled.
The older chicks are getting so big! I find it difficult to tell #1 and #2 apart which has me thinking that #1 could be male and #2 a female. Time will tell :-)
BBL :-)
33 eating on the nest and giving #3 some too :-)
16:34 another joins the feed
then Maya takes the fish from 33 stopping him feeding the chicks aww
Maya has the fish and begins to eat coaxing the chicks LOL

#4 now making its way up for some fish
squeezing through

33 lands with a large stick
