10.44 They see someone- a parent must be nearby. The chicks start twittering and form a circle.

10.46 It's Kaia! She feeds the kids (2). I can't see what and how much is on the menu, but the chicks peck for a long time.

There seem to be many breaks in the stream. They started at 12.00.

But I think we can officially say now that on the 4th day of introducing Bonus to the new nest, he has accepted and adapted with the situation, recognizing the new parents without any defending or aggression. :)
