Does anyone know when the kids got some good food between them?

Ma had brought fish in this morning Delores and fed them. The cams were down but we know that they had at least one fish, but more than likely they had one before the one we saw because neither eaglet went to the fish until at least 20 minutes after it was on the nest, so they must have recently eaten.

The wind is certainly fluffing the feathers. I was in the middle of posting this when the adult came in
