Eating On Their Own On Avenue A

The adult male brought food to the nest and the three eyasses ate on their own, a sign they’re growing up and will be fledging in a few weeks.  The eyasses can be aggressive in going after the food, and one was today, quickly taking it from their father. 

It began to rain, so I had to pack up my camera, but I still watched the nest.  After about twenty minutes of letting the eyasses work on the food by themselves, the mother came in to help them finish their meal.
