Drake has brought more food for Daisy.  He appears to be looking after her very well.

You can see the caterpillar in Daisy's beak.

I'm not quite sure what he is doing here.  Is he checking whether or not she has eaten it?

He must have been satisfied as he then leaves the box.

A close-up view of Daisy's eggs.  Or should I say Daisy and Drake's eggs?

This is Chloe's clutch.

Chris is also bringing food to Chloe.

He, also, appears to wait for a while before he leaves.

But then he does, leaving Chloe to carry on sitting on the eggs.

Another sequence of Daisy and Drake.  Again, you can see the food item in her beak.

She still hasn't swallowed it - and Drake still hasn't left.

Well, Drake is leaving now, even though it looks as though Daisy still has the food in her beak!

Directly she disposes of the food, she, too, leaves the box.
