The eaglet practiced self feeding on some scraps that were left in the nest.
I don't know what's over the side of the nest, but it deserved some very close attention.
Eaglets also need a lot of rest:
Armpit:
There was a puddle of grey fluff, first eating then snuggling, at the Hays nest when I checked in today.
One of the adults at the Northeast Florida nest was mugging for the camera.
There was some excitement at the Two Harbors nest today. The scene started peacefully enough with Dad watching over the baby.
Suddenly, Dad starting looking around then calling out. He took off to the right chasing after another eagle that then came in from the right and did a touch and go on the nest -- right nest to the baby. Dad came right back into the nest, hot on the tail of the intruder.
There are indications that something is happening. Several times the adult backed off of the eggs a little and looked down, maybe hearing a chick cheeping inside of the egg.
I finally got a peek at the eggs, but not enough to see if there are any pips.
Mom looks like she's getting a good night's sleep at the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes Osprey nest.
Bald Eagle NX checked in. She has left Rosier Creek, but is still in familiar territory.
