The chicks were sticking close to Mom hoping she'd share whatever she found. I did see her eat a piece after trying to tear pieces off. I think it was skin because she couldn't get any pieces to tear off. So, she ate it... But then she found something that she shared with the eaglets.
These babies have some great camouflage! It's amazing to me that something that starts out white and ends up white and gray can be so dark at this stage of their lives.
There was a pesky Currawong Fly-by at the nest today. Here's a short video (0:36):
SE16 is having so much fun in the branches today! She is totally confident now, hopping around and exploring what's beyond the nest. Check out the SE16 In The Branches video (11:03):
Here's a new video put out by the Africam Black Eagle folks: Kendi On The Cliff Face (2:02):
FR4 has been in this area longer and is showing more data points. There must be good fishing and plenty of trees in which to roost. Perhaps they have found communal roosts and are with other Osprey... The data from tracking various animals is used to find important areas such as these so conservation efforts can be best directed toward the areas that will make the biggest impact for the animals being studied.
