Karula National Park (Karl II and Kaia)

[Madli]

I went through today's entire stream and the chicks only had one feed. The poor chicks are stressed and hungry .

Yes, only one feeding.
It really makes you scratch your head and think " what happened?"

I sure hope it's not the one and only feeding of the day!

16.26 - The chicks started chirping, but no one flew...

FEEDING at 16.44 and again by Karl II (2)
I saw fishes

16.43.57 they noticed him (K2 - 718V first) and we saw immediately the feeding behaviour (twittering, circle, wing flapping)
16.44.1x Bonus pooping (is that always by him so?), correction: no pooping - only storklet walked to the nest-rim
16.44.17 Karl II arrived and feeding started: big fish + one pile of fishes
16.44.49 Karl II flew out

718W (K1) has some kind of (little) problem with the food (first I noticed it at 16.45.24)

I like this view


this "released" big fish "flew out" of the bill and K1 (718W) grabbed it

next regurgitating (16.44.42)


(16.44.44)



storklet is still not all right



edit: at 17.07 it started raining

FEEDING again, this time Kaia arrived at 18.49 (3)

btw. chicks are soaked - they seems black


youtube chat info:

18:49:35 видна крыса в клюве Кайи (a rat is visible in K. bill)
5:55 PM Inna N​
И она опять досталась W (and W got it again)

description:
18.48.50 they noticed her arrival (first 718V), and "feeding behaviour" started immediately
18.49.13 Kaia is on the nest (they are concentrated on this nest edge - I don't know if this part won't drop before the end of the season)
18.49.42 Kaia flew away
(I noticed only the mentioned rat for 718W and something not big - little fishes maybe, I am not sure)

K2 (718W) with the big rodent

Video Karl feeding - 16.44

[Adria]

Kaia feeding - she brought voles for dinner

[Adria]

K1 - eats another vole

[Adria]

18.49 - Kaia flies away


The chicks had a hearty dinner, they will surely sleep well .

[marika.solo]

I am not sure if they all fourth are satisfied

Bonus seems be (very) hungry (neck)


K1 is full
