Looks like food gifting has begun.  MrN had a small fish on the nest about 11:00 this morning, not big enough to share.  But about 1:00 DNF brought fresh kill to the nest and called for MrN, who brought something to eat on a nearby branch.  What was it?  Who killed it?  It's good to see the Norths doing what they do in mid-December.  DNF cleaned up in the creek near the Spit, then preened in the Spit Tree.

The snow didn't stop them from soaring some before the 1:00 feeding.  Find on rewind.

The unknown carcass has become popular on the nest this morning. First DNF moved it out of the snow about 8:00. The male red-bellied woodpecker that has been visiting was there several times starting about 9:30, and a blue jay came, too.  At 11:00 the smaller birds are still nibbling away.

Male pheasant foraging in bushy area under the nest about 11:00 this morning.  Listen to it clucking on the rewind.

It's likely that the mystery carcass from yesterday was a pheasant.  The eagles like them and they are pretty easy to catch.  MrN finished off the carcass around 11:30.  Look out Mr Pheasant!
