they peck to everything what is moving - it could be food (i see the one of the big storklet pecking to the youngest one, but not only on this nest)
good catch!

all are waiting on our female - food is needed
storklets are twittering time to time very loud
15.48 male up, storklets are ready for next feeding
- he shakes the water from his feathers, is pretty soaked
15.44.34
15.48.47
15.54 M regurgitated something (fluid) and they nibbled it with the moss
15.57 covered his very hungry offspring
(15.59.07)

change at 16.16.24 F in and M immediately out
female's head seems to me dry and I don't see raindrops on her plumage
FEEDING
at 16.17
- nice feeding, all ate good sized fishes (?) maybe also frogs
- the 2 little first behind the others, but also No6 crawled to the table (bottom of the nest bowl there) and ate something - maybe, I hope (head is moving)
- it isn't simply for little one to move in the nest-bowl with large siblings, especially they move sharply (their sharp movement overturns him here and there)
- little one is still slowly and siblings are very fast
- the other siblings are full
wake up - food is here (16.16.36)
(16.17.20) the start is really very quickly - No5 is still slowly
(16.17.30) - the table empties quickly

FEEDING at 16.17
continuation
finally on the way to the table (16.17.50)
the table is here
(16.18.30)
- No6 searched all the time on the bottom, probably got some pieces
- even in slow motion I couldn't capture the moments when his head was up and something in his beak
- benjamin need small portions and much more often (the others too)
- I read an article that parents adjust the size of food to the eldest (largest) chicks, this is the only preference by adult storks on stork nests (but sometimes we see extra feeding for the smallest chick on the streamed nests)

@Adriána K the little one got food too. 16:18:13 and 16:18:30-50 - I couldn't see the exact seconds because it's white
3:29 PM Baiba Kļaviņa
Not much, but got something
16.23.14 F settled down (after taking care of the chicks)
(16.33.06)

17.31 and next it seemed like attempt to brood reduction
- female tried to grab the little one's head, repeatedly
- she stopped it
- benjamin hid himself well below it´s siblings later (as we see often in similar cases)
- she takes care of her offspring, no feeding yet
(17.47.35) the blue colour

17.32.02 - Janika tried to eliminate number 6 
, but the smallest one was very lucky so far:
