Berry College Eagles Day 30&32 -- Hot Day, Osprey Are Back!

How can you tell when a Bald Eagle is hot?

Spread out even more... She stayed like this for a while.

There was a good feeding while I was watching, with both chicks getting bites. There were some pretty big bites too.

Here's a video from this feeding. Mom first shows the chicks how to swallow a bone. Then she offers a bone to one of the chicks. Watch this video to see what the chick does... The video is 3:45 minutes.


That's a big, boney bite!


The Osprey have returned to the area! Spring is almost here. I saw three Bald Eagles and two Osprey this morning. (One Bald Eagle and two Osprey were flying together. And then two younger Bald Eagles were flying together.) Of course, nobody else even noticed them until I pointed them out. I don't know how these huge birds can fly overhead and call out and people don't even look up to check them out!
