Fort St Vrain has three bobble-heads. I know this isn't the best picture, but I think it really shows the size difference between the older two (both hatched on 3/29) and the youngest (hatched on 4/1):
Duke Farms has two bobble-heads. One is higher and a little bit to the right of the other.
Alcoa has two babies -- and look at the one that has already climbed out of the nest bowl!
NCTC has two little ones. They are passed out!
It was a rainy day at Harrison Bay. You can see the Mom Eagle has her wings spread, trying to keep her babies warm and dry. We finally get to see the two bobble-heads for feeding time:
And some shots of the Great Horned Owls. The youngsters' plumage is starting to resemble the adult's.
NX has checked in. And for the second time, she has put on some miles! She is now exploring new territory after flying 29 miles from her last check-in!
This is interesting. Eagles that have been rehabilitated in Alaska get a tune-up before being released back into the wild. Check out what the Alaska Raptor Center does. The Wildlife Center of Virginia doesn't do this. I wonder if it's beneficial...
