Rome: 33 days old, Bologna: fledge
After a day without food and very empty crops Aria brought in a fresh prey in the evening. The 2 juvi's where again that hungry that they fought over this prey with eachother and with Aria. I was very happy to see Aria did not let go this time, so the youngest one would be getting a good meal as well. At last. He is dominated by the other much bigger female. And does not dare to grab prey from her. It's amazing to see how he behaves to her, head turned away waiting until there is a left over item for him. This behaviour will not get him very far once they've fledged.
But these are babies, they need 3 good meals a day. Must be hard for Aria and Vento to get enough prey. But today they had al least one very big meal.
Today both Bologna juveniles fledged. And that is very soon. Let's hope everything goes fine with theM!
