feeding looks a violent affair

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

content... for now

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mother returns to a squabbling, squawking, starving brood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the chicks go into survival of the fittest mode 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then Mama leaves to get some more food 

(in this case, a hot dog)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and does it all over again

 

 

 

 

again and again and again.
