9:42pm.....At first the small eaglet ate the most but I can now see the sibling eating too.

Big let on the left seemed to be poking the prey.........maybe an attempt or at least an interest in self feeding.

4:39 am in rollback, a bit of a tussle to begin the day. The larger eaglet started it but the smaller eaglet finished it with the larger eaglet going into submission.

4:47 am in rollback, as Brit is feeding the smaller eaglet, Rey brings in a small item. Brit grabs it but then flies.
