He is sure trying to do his part. I didn't see it get a single bite and now she's gone with the prey. Oh my goodness.

I thought it funny that it made its way to her, versus Durand coming closer to it.

At least she has the small bites part down. Nature just amazes me that she knows instinctually to pull small bites..

Just got back from the office, looks like Durand has settled in and is dozing a bit. The mic still sounds like it is peaking again. It's not even particularly windy today, either. Hm..

Well, I have some stuff on the to-do list to tackle now, hopefully I won't be missing much and we start seeing a second pip, I dont know if this peaking mic will pick up a second chirping within the egg very clearly..

Update! Donna is up with a new post.

That baby is so cute...

Durand alarm calling... is this her "Bring Dinner" call to Spark?

Baby opens his mouth each time she's calling.

Donna has posted an update on her blog about today's events and the attempted feedings. I found it both interesting and reassuring!

I've been peeking in frequently today to see how the new parents & baby are doing & I was thinking that even though Durand didn't realize she needed to cover baby, at least she didn't throw it up in the air a few times like Red Girl did her first hatch. (I think she was mad at the little squiggly thing that broke her precious egg.) She caught on quickly though & I'm sure Durand will as well. My attitude is that Mother Nature designed tiny chicks to not need food to take into account new mothers & also ongoing hatches that interfere with a chick getting fed right away.

By the way, I agree this is a really strong baby. I don't know that I've seen any new hatches that are this strong! :flirty:

Thanks for the videos, captures & comments today to catch up those of us who couldn't watch today!
:clap:

Baby and Durand share a few moments. Too bad Durand didn't have food in her mouth, baby would have gotten quite a bit.. :teehee:

This is also the first time I have personally witness Durand pulling the little chick under her...well, almost under her..close enough..

It's painful to watch, no doubt about it. She's making contact with it's mouth but I can't see anything going in.

Much better on this try... I just got cam back up and at least she's getting the mouth!

Woo Hoo...

This reminds me of Rochester when DC fed Orion for the first time!

Careful on the eyes Mom!
