Great action story Morris, really like the last two.
I have to wonder how well they can tell them apart and how good their memory is of who they fed last after each trip to hunt and come back? What if a wise guy changes places with the next one to be fed, does he get fed twice and gyp his nest mates??

Thank you Eric,
Funny you should ask this question. I shot five feedings and the same fledgling was feed, even when the parent came from the left flying past the other three. I considered posting the hole sequence illustrating the favoritism yet decided what I posted was the best of the individual sequences.

These are amazing, clear pictures and great captures. Is it just me or the chicks are the same size as the parent?
Thank you Malka,
They are just slightly smaller than the parents with coloring that's close to that of the female. The behaviour tells me who is who as well as induvial markings.
