Continued - 10:24am - After Papa left the nest, Kindness picked up the fish tail section (by using some kind of bone or gut that was attached to it) and took it to the other side of the plastic sheeting...
Kindness pulled off large pieces of the fish tail section from here. (red dot)
At around 10:30am - Kindness finished eating the fish tail and then looked around the nest tree area.

8:07AM. Kindness got up from resting around 8AM and started showing signs of needing to cast a pellet. Kindness has their beak open, but we don’t see the pellet yet. Oh, a biggie! Here it comes.

8:07AM. The pellet is out and dropping onto the plastic sheet. Kindness picks it up and carries it. Still carrying the pellet. Looks good-sized and came out easy.

8:07AM. Kindness breaks the pellet apart. It is still indigestible material. Should Kindness swallow any of it, it will return in another pellet.

9:23AM. Continued from previous post.
Kindness reaches for the landing, as they will do for a branch landing one day soon. 9:25AM. Kindness does some more flaps. Hmm… This one was close to the meadow, and one foot goes on the side.

9:25AM. Continued from above.
Kindness knows that is the edge and quickly backs their foot up onto the nest floor. Kindness went back onto the plastic for more wild wing flapping. This is a fully extended position before going airborne. When done, Kindness looks directly at the cam tree. I wonder if Mama or Papa was perched there, watching.

9:40AM. Kindness has another round of wing flapping. Here are a couple from this round. The beautiful underside of Kindness’s wing. Kindness looks at the cam tree again. Now I am convinced Mama or Papa is perched there.

9:45AM. Kindness rests at the back of the nest. A few minutes later, the plastic sheet is blowing in the breeze, contacting Kindness, who is unfazed.

10:23AM. Kindness is ready and waiting as they see Papa flying in with a delivery. Papa has landed and Kindness is going for it. This ain’t nesting material! We can see Kindness has already claimed the delivery, a fish tail section.

10:23AM Continued.
Kindness is trying to keep their fish tail section away from Papa. Papa leaves. Time for Kindness to go to work self feeding on the fish tail section. Kindness drags it across the plastic to the other side.

10:23AM Delivery continued.
Kindness is swallowing the tail here. Kindness has one more bite left before they rummage for all the little dropped tidbits. Kindness feaks on this branch.
