2:57pm........Ma snuck into the nest while I was zoomed in............she has some prey in her talons but I can't tell what it is. Looks wet and fresh, but don't see a whole animal in its shape.

2:58pm.......More of the prey. Doesn't look like something Ma dragged from the nest.....too fresh looking. Quite a bit of meat on it.

3:07pm.....Bella and Coola kept taking turns holding the bone, but kept dropping it. Ma would pick it up, wave it at them, then this would start all over again.
