More water, and more wet grass...
Karl II works very hard to keep his chicks a bit cooler

The chicks have hardly eaten anything today.
I hope there will be some extensive feedings later.
But most of all I hope that Karl II and Kaia are still able to find enough food at the moment.

Hello @Anne7 :wave:
Karl II and Kaia are great parents. :thumbs:

13:49:34 Karl II flies away.

It is 14:00 soon the parents will be able to feed properly again. The midday heat goes.

First tickle everyone else's toes and they get up and then go back to sleep yourself.

15:23:14 Karl II comes back.

15:24 feeding? Karl II seems to offer small portions? He also gave water first.
I just can't see it clearly.

17:49:03 Kaia regurgitates a pile of fish. I don't think it was much food.
Image

17:49:04 One chick (#2 ?) was standing behind Kaia and couldn't reach the food
Image

17:49:13 The chicks keep looking for leftovers, or maybe small 'things'?

One chick dreams (probably flies) and the other gets a wing against his/her head.
As a punishment, a little wing and a cheek is bitten a bit :laugh:
