Saw another feed.
Ma was sitting on the prey and the 2 bobbleheads were lying down then soon sat up!
I did see 2nd hatch get about 4 bites.

7;46pm......When she was done, Ma seemed to have trouble settling down on the chicks........and opted for turning to the side as she finally did that.

One sweet face looking up at Ma.
