12:45 The male arrived. Feeding: a long fish. 12:46 The male leaves.
12:55 The male returned. 12:59 Feeding: a small amount of leftover food in two servings.

13:13 – 15:24 The stream froze, but the male was present.

19:50 The chicks gather close to the female.
20:18 The female stands like an umbrella over the chicks.
21:10 The female flew to a branch.

The blueish tubes on the chicks' wings are new growing feathers protected by sheaths (pin feathers).
It seem they ate Lampetra fluviatilis (longer "stick")
