On 06-12-20 at 8:42 p.m., Virsis, the adult male, brought a larger bird to the nest. Klints, the little chick, had eaten earlier in the day but not enough for its liking or its benefit. Food deliveries to the nest have been sporadic and inconsistent more recently, and Spilve has been spending considerable time away from the nest in search of prey.
Today, just before Virsis brought the bird for a late supper, Spilve landed on an adjacent branch then moved onto the nest briefly before departing. Soon after, Virsis delivered his prey and left the nest rather quickly. Spilve returned a short time later to feed Klints.
It's very likely that Spilve and Virsis were hunting together late in the day, improving their chances of providing food for Klints.
