The baby pushed and pulled its way out from under Mom. I love the look that she's giving the chick!
Mom left the nest for a little bit to stretch her wings.
Zoomer gave us a nice close-up of the chick.
Mom returned soon and fed the chick. This chick seems to be growing very slowly. It's having a hard time connecting with the food being offered. I don't know if this is normal development or not. This is my first year really following this nest.
The Dyfi Osprey chicks are growing like weeds! Food is plentiful and the parents are careful to make sure everyone gets fed. It's hard to find moments when they are all looking up and not preening -- but I got two s'caps.
Mom took off from the nest right toward the camera. Here she is during take-off, she's already "wheels up"...
Look at this pretty display of one of the Harrison Bay Eaglets.
The babies are hot, relaxing their wings so air can circulate around their bodies.
Yep, hot baby!
Still wingercizing...
We go from chillin'...
...to a lot of "squeeing" for a food delivery.
That brought both Eaglets to the nest. It's nice to see them together.
This is probably one of my favorite s'caps from this nest this year.
The Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes nest cam was zoomed in close today. A little too close...
And it seems to have the same setting tonight. I wonder if it's broken? I still love this s'cap. Mom was in the frame when suddenly the baby stuck its head up for a photo bomb.
Look at that wingspan on one of the White Rock Eaglets! Probaby 4-5 feet...
