Video opens with a fish delivery by Ellie, then one by Harvey while Ellie is feeding. Harvey brings an another fish, the third for the nest by 0837 AM. Next up is an evening feeding by Ellie. She gives Harvey a big bite also, too cute. Harvey spreads nesting material during the feeding, and Cheyenne pecks at Dad, letting him know that is not cool. Harvey pulls a fish to eat, and Cheyenne turns to him to get bites. Ellis comes over, and Harvey passes bites to her.
Later, Harvey is on Daddy duty. He picks up a carcass (trash) and leaves the nest with it. Video closes with crop shots on Wichita and Cheyenne. More details in the time stamps below, if interested.
