Screen Captures of Berry Bald Eagle Nest Chick Day 4, 5 and 6, Bald Eagle Camellia's Location, Urbanized Bald Eagle, Juvenile Bald Eagle Buzzes Alcoa Bald Eagle Nest

Screen Captures of the Berry College Bald Eagle nest/hatchling from 2/26 day 4:
Mom resting with her butt in the wind:

Eagle chicks have a lot of growing to do, so they spend a lot of time eating:

Mom offers a bite:
 
 Dad is getting some shut-eye:

And later, eating again. This is Mom:

These are from 2/27 day 5:
This is a new one for me -- being fed and brooded at the same time:


Home alone, but only briefly:


These are from today, 2/28 day 6:
Dad landed in the nest, bringing a big fish:

There is starting to be a large accumulation of "nestovers" in the nest. This is a good sign that there is ample food. Once the chick gets bigger, the regular food deliveries will be needed. You can just see the chick peeking out:

Bald Eagle Camellia has checked in.

Reese posted today about the Urbanized Bald Eagle. I referred to Bald Eagle HK the other day as an urban Bald Eagle. I think it's amazing that they are able to adapt so well.

The Alcoa Bald Eagle nest was buzzed by a juvenile today. At least the youngster didn't land in the nest, like what happened the other day at the Turtle Bay nest. The juvie at the Alcoa nest might have been hungry for the fish laying in the nest, who knows... The Alcoa nest has two eggs.
