E get's very close to the water and then flies up and towards the left!
No duck...but the E was so close to the water that the water was rippling right
at the spot where E flew up and away from the water!
:woohoo:

The ducks are in the water and to the left of the scap...out of cams view.

What an awesome try E! One day, soon, you will be a pro hunter and you will get your duck-breakfast! :bravo:
E flew back to the CSPS and lands next to the other E.

There's just a little bump over the healed area now.

Looks like a little fish scale is still on E10 beak!

E11 Returns From Her Karate Class This Morning! :w00t:
.
A swift kick with her left foot into E10s side!...
42518 124844am e11 towards e10.JPG
And...another good kick with talons spread for more body contact...
42518 1248pm e11 footinto e10 UU.JPG
E11 has learned to make sure she gets in another good kick to the side
as she faces her opponent to shows who's in control of the situation!
:angry:

1:15pm - M15 brings a fish to the nest where E10 and E11 were in the nest.
E11 and E10 rush to the nest edge making it impossible for M15 to land and he and E11 falls out of the nest.
E10 is at the right.

E10 is able to stay on the nest and grabs the fish

E10 holds onto the fish (red dot) and takes it to the middle of the nest.

E11 lands on branch below nest and M15 flies to the OCT.
Both are okay!
:yes:
