As noted, Anna was stuffed to the brim with food this afternoon. And it showed. She struggled to stay awake, already dozing off around 17:40. A few stands and preen but mostly brooding and dozing.
Went to dark with Anna facing away but with head up and perhaps looking out - all that early sleeping...
Dozing off, beak into nest
Unusual stretch - reminds me of how the chicks loll around before fledging.

16:38 or so, Just after Anna returned to the nest with a sprig, but Andris flew in doing the same.
Calm late afternoon to dusk - brooding, preening and contemplating as might eagles do.
16:17 some quick eagle yoga both wings
Towards 19:00 Anna is beginning to doze on and off. She flies out at 19:17 and returns with nothing 10 mins later.
22:12 a surprise visit by Andris carrying a rather awkward dry stick. Not the best of choices but he avoids clobbering Anna with it.
Soon afterwards Anna sleeps as it goes to dark.

Thanks to folks in YT chat for timeline alerts!!!
09:20 largish rodent, which Anna swallows with a lot of heaving and gulping:
13:17 Anna leaves for a break and returns 6 mins later empty handed.
14:53 and thereabouts, Anna very alert, looking around and up - gives a series of calls looking up.
Andris arrives with a very large rodent - water vole? Anna leaves and Andris takes over brooding duties:
18:48 Anna returns with an early Xmas tree of a sprig:
Not to be outdone, Andris leaves and returns with an awkwardly shaped dried branch. He seems to favour these for reasons perhaps not apparent to Anna.
18:50s onwards Anna in nest ....
Calm evening, nothing of note. Anna did drowse into dusk but was not particularly sleepy with her head out. Just before dark she stood and preened before settling down, finally head over and into back feathers....
