9:42PM. Mama is flying in with a late delivery. Arrow marks the fish tail section trailing behind Mama.

Mama with her delivery. Red - fish tail section. Green - piece of carcass, flopped down flat after this scap. Yellow - fish head.

Better look at the fish head. Arrow marks mouth. I cannot be positive on the fish head; that is how it appears to me. This will count as a fish carcass delivery.

Mama feeds Kindness.

Mama feeds big pieces. There appeared to be a lot of skin/meat at the front end of this delivery.

3:30am - Kindness is up (and looking towards the left) while Mama is tucked and sleeping.
(Early morning s'caps have been lightened to show better detail.)

3:54am - Mama picked up a left over partial fish (which included the fish tail section) and fed herself and Kindness.
After eating this partial fish, Mama gave the fish tail to Kindness, but Kindness picked at it a little. Mama then picked up the fish tail and fed Kindness the fish tail by pulling off pieces from it. (Red dot's show the length of this partial fish piece.)

4:11am - After Mama finished feeding Kindness and herself, she flew off in the direction towards the cam tree area.
