Partial frontal view illustrating the colors of the front of the body as well as the bill shape and relative size compared to the head.
Observation details
There are 3 chicks in the nest. They still have very fuzzy and sparse feathers on their heads. Adults are very cautious approaching the nest. It appears one stands guard near the nest while the other hunts. They possibly trade off with the arrival of the adult carrying food. It is difficult to observe the exact activity due to nest location relative to a proper viewing distance that does not pose an implied threat.
