Dad feeding Mum as I checked in
he flies,she pulls prey and is very clumsy,stepping on little ones.
she feeds them both
takes prey away
and flies off with remains
Thanks for the great captures Kate, hope she learns very quickly not to stand on the chicks!

Bit dark in the shade but can see chicks home alone, wonder if Mum gone for food? https://youtu.be/ogdE2W7k8Gs
Crikey! poor chicks , get really knocked about by Mum,but thankfully seem to be strong enough to cope.
She was sitting, but alert to something out front, when she just flew off the nest ,one chick flicked up the nest, she was soon back and tucked them in.
