Berry College Eagles Day 39&41, Pennsylvania Bald Eagle Documentary

The chicks are getting so much bigger now and they are getting more dark feathers coming in.

They are more steady on their feet now and stand more upright, like their parents, instead of hunched over as they have been standing.

When they feel the breeze, their instinct is to throw out their wings. Their wingspan is about 4 feet now. We should start to see vigorous wingercizing soon! That's always fun to watch. For now, they are just getting used to feeling the breeze going across their new feathers.


Here's a link to a really great documentary. Pennsylvania Bald Eagles: Celebrating 30 Years of Restoration (21:32)
