Default Baby Eagles

I am so into it. It is cool, but it looks like that one of the chicks does not get a lot to eat. There are 3 in the nest: A real big one, a medium and the last born, who is real small, has still problems walking, so it ends up not getting any food. Hopefully it will make it.
The bird one of the eagles was plucking, looked like a sea gull or a dove.

It sure keeps me from working today.
All of you have a good weekend.

I guess it's called survival of the fittest...

I know that I've worried about him not getting his fair share but it's too early to write him off. And everyone loves the "runt" of a litter.

He's getting a good meal right now and is on his feet!!! *grin

Exclamation now this morning

someone is panning the cam around to show the nature center.

The 3 chicks are alone on the nest, with one parent sitting nearby on a large
branch.

This is so interesting!

I haven't read this entire thread so hope I'm not duplicating any information.

There is an Eagle nest near where I live in a giant old oak on a river. The nest is so huge you can see it from the highway quite some distance away.

Here is some info on Eagle nests. It's very interesting.

Quote:
Interior Decorating
Eagles, along with several other hawks, add sprigs of greenery to their nests throughout the spring and summer. No one knows why they do this, but scientists have some ideas.

Before reading on, name as many reasons as you can think of why eagles might put greenery in their nests.

Answer: Some scientists think the greenery :

* may serve as an insect repellent
* may be a clear signal to other eagles that this nest is well-tended so they better keep away
* may provide a bit of camouflage
* may help keep inside of nest clean
That's taken from the link about nests.
