20090611_18-09-06.jpgA few minutes before 6pm today the male adult brought a pigeon to the nest. There was the usual scramble for the prey and Azalea (HH) won the battle. BUT then she had no idea what it was or what to do with it. It was not her usual meal, a fish. She sort of half mantled over it and looked it over for about 20 minutes. Her younger sister HE, who was sitting a few feet away on a branch, could wait no longer and moved in, mantled over the pigeon and nearly ate the whole thing.
