00:22:16 Denali had just stopped preening, and it looked like they were going to do a stretch.

00:22:18 Denali’s defensive posture as they watch the left branch, the quick return to relaxed, tell us Aurora just arrived there before we even look for her.

00:23:04 This scap shows Aurora a little better than can be seen in her arrival scaps.

Good morning Kenai Eagle family, Bev, Baita, and Kitcat.

02:00:00 Denali rests, and Aurora is on the left branch.

04:00:00 Denali rests, and Aurora is on the left branch.

04:21:09 Aurora leaves the left branch and crosses in front of the cam on her way away from the nest tree.

Video from LadyDeeagle55 showing Denali self feeding and downing the fish tail. Thanks Dee for the video. Denali will continue to work on and improve at self feeding. Scaps below.

08:47:56 Denali finds the fish tail nestover section they left here last night (at 22:45:13, previous post above) and begins working on it.

08:52:30 Denali still eating on the nestover. I cannot see their feet to tell for sure if this qualifies as self feeding, so I will just to give them an “A” for effort.

08:56:53 I think Denali may have been meeting the standards for self feeding, by using my zoom feature and watching their feet.

08:57:17 Denali has the fish tail and is working to swallow it. Click on any picture to enlarge it.

08:57:18 Bye bye fish tail.

09:04:47 Denali has finished cleaning up any scraps.

Great job, Denali! Reviewed by others, all agree Denali met the criteria for self feeding, and will continue to work on/improve at this.

[Baita]

Wow! Great job Denali indeed!!!! Thank you for the update Androcat!

17:24:22 Aurora in with what appears to be a fish head.

17:24:25 Denali claims the food.

17:26:18 Denali takes the food to the left and Aurora finally goes up the left branch to let Denali work on self feeding.
