Oh Maddy it's absolutely wonderful to see him with a nice crop again. It's been at least a week since we have seen it. Hope this continues. Especially in this heat.

3:11 pm He's been watching something up higher in the tree.

3:47 pm Simba really is looking better today. Still preening now and then. I see that there is still a piece of fish left in the nest. Hope he eats it!
