First off, there has been some discussion on why Dot.Ca is hesitant to give Beauty prey and they "fight" over the food.  There is an excellent post on C&C's Ohio Peregrine Facebook page, which I think helps us understand what is happening.  Basically, it is competing instincts (Survival vs. Reproduction) in the tiercel (Dot.Ca).  Here is a link to the page.  It really is a good explanation and some fantastic photos of a pair in Ohio:

*******************************************

2:07, Beauty is relaxing on the beam in front of the box when Dot.Ca comes screaming in, making a prey delivery to Beauty on deck.  Dot.Ca heads to the box and Beauty starts consuming her meal, before flying off.  Dot.Ca stayed at the NB the entire time.  First in the box, then on the beam, then to top of main cam, then to the top of cam 1.  Once Beauty returned, they headed to the box for an after meal bonding session. 

After the bonding session Beauty stayed behind, doing a little housekeeping and preening. She departed a little while later.  Then we have Dot.Ca arrive back at the box, very verbal, chirping and chupping.  He did some housekeeping of his own, scraping and stayed in the box until approx 3:49.  He flew off with a call.

After the prey delivery and bonding session, DC returned at 3:37 to guard the box and do some housekeeping of his own.  Here's a small portion of his visit:
