I got some video of the Two Harbors eaglet today. She is fun to watch now that she has discovered the breeze! And this nest has sound: you can hear the rattle of her feathers as she flaps her wings and the crunch of the nest when she lands as she hops about wingercizing. Here's a still from the video:
I got a quick peek at the White Rock nest just now. It seems like at least one of the eaglets is always catching up on its sleep. Growing up into a Bald Eagle is hard work and requires lots of rest!
Mom Berry College Bluebird looks to be asleep tonight:
The Osprey at the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes nest continue to incubate even though it is well past the hatch window. Part of observing nests includes watching what happens when things go wrong. The only other time this nest failed, the Osprey didn't give up incubating until day 70 -- that is almost twice the length of time for a hatch to occur. (Today is day 58, so we might still catch them on the nest for quite a few more days.) I'm just glad I was able to take this s'cap. This is such a pretty nest and the picture is so sharp and clear. I like the moss on the branches and the grass growing in the nest. And look at how pretty the individual feather colors are:
Every now and then, Bald Eagle Camellia checks in more often than every three days. This is one of those times. He just checked in yesterday, and then today, a new location was reported. And he has been on the move!
The sibling of Bald Eagle MR fledged today. The story and pictures are at this link.
