10 am Adult lands in the nest. I believe it's Trooper. He has brought in a pretty large branch that he works on placing.

Trooper starts eating but then feeding one of the eaglets too.

As usual it takes a bit for the 2nd eaglet to squeeze into a spot where they can also get a few bites. They are both well-fed at the moment, so no problem anyway.

And then they are finished.

11:01 am in rollback, it looked like Ma hopped down from a branch. She uncovers one of the leftover fish and begins to eat and offer food to Shadow (I think). Shadow doesn't see to interested though.

11:06 am in rollback and to finish the feeding from the above post. Ma is offering bites to Shadow (I think) and Shadow eats some but Ma gets some bites too. Then the feeding was finished with Shadow doing a PS.

1:11 pm wanted to double check to make sure this was Ma and it is. Hard to get a good image with the wing blowing the cam around but got one. Ma is on the branch.
