Here the Wurdemann's shows the fish she is preparing to digest for the chicks. First she seemed to be putting pressure on the fish perhaps squeezing fluids for her young. Later she swallows up the fish again for further processing. They feed the young by regurgitation of food they have gorged themselves on during the breeding season.
