Harrison Bay Eagles Nestoration Continue, White-bellied Sea Eagles Day 79 SE16 Misses The Landing!, Africam Black Eagle Day 148 Tough Love

The Harrison Bay Eagles were doing more nestorations today. Having spent the night in the nest tree, they were moving about the nest bright and early. (Dark and early?)

I like seeing them side-by-side. Pretty!

They were working together again to place the sticks.

And they were still going beak-to-beak to settle differences. Dad is still standing tall and reared back to get away from Mom's beak in the s'cap below. She is starting to turn away here.

Look at the size of this stick! If Dad is 3 feet from head to tail, that stick is at least 4 feet long!

The White-bellied Sea Eagle chicks are still miles apart in their development. SE16 is still flying back and forth between the camera tree and the nest.

Here, SE16 just landed to the left of SE15.

Check out this video of something new. SE16 does an exit, stage right! Then SE16 Misses The Landing! You can hear her crashing through the branches below the nest. It's scary when this happens -- this is how wings and legs get broken... Does she make it back ok? Watch the video to find out! (3:25)

There are new pictures of the Africam Black Eaglet Kendi. She is a stunner and these pictures are amazing! The parents (mostly Dad) are showing her aggression -- both for training and to make her feel unwelcome so she will leave the territory and strike out on her own. That's the way it is with the Black Eagles. They are not a warm/fuzzy species, with their siblicide and tough love... But check out these pictures, they clearly depict the interaction between Kendi and Dad. Amazing!!
