Today one of the Garden's workers put up this link to a video on YouTube.

It is a recording of what the eggs sound like when they are about to hatch.


.


It is really interesting! They make quite a racket and certainly the parents then know the hatching is imminent!

If you click on other IWS videos there, some are really good.
One has a worker hand wearing an eagle glove! feeding a newly hatched chick.

.

This is so the chick will imprint on the eagle and not the human!

That was great!

I think eagles are very very intelligent. After watching the
Norfolk site for 3 seasons now, and others I think the eagles are just very smart and we didn't know that before!

They sure do take good care of their young. They have a long reproductive cycle, with a lot of care being needed for the babies. Most birds are "done" in 6 wks. But the eagles go months!. And the young do not breed for 5 years! They need that much experience and learning to be able to do it at all!

Thanks for the link...Alffe... I enjoyed it too!

Here is a link to Part II of the newly hatched chicks gallery at Blackwater:


.


They are so cute at this stage!

The Norfolk family may hatch any day now. There is alot of buzz there on the Chat about it. (they have closed the chat to casual discussion and moved that to another link (FINALLY), so today it is all for the educational visitors, and confined to eagle biology.
