I am making a separate thread for those interested.
The details of this new unfortunate development are on the Baby eagles in the nest thread on this page. . .

I Googled avian pox... and this is a serious disease.
The parents can catch it. It is transmitted via mosquitos, and also bird to bird. I have noticed the parents keeping a distance now from the chick. But I thought that was a move toward independence. Last I looked the mother eagle was watching the chick from a nearby branch...staring at it actually. Now there is a terrible storm there, and the cam is down. Severe storms (in the red zone) for a while now. I am thinking they will take the chick... to a place to raise it. I wonder if that happens, if the parents leave? Or will they wait for it?

The Santa Cruz eagle cam has also had a terrible event.
. It appears that other eagles attack nests! ?? Both chicks there were attacked and are now recovering from their injuries. It was caught on video too... it is hard to watch...sensitive people here may wish to not view this: . And the video feed for Norfolk appears down this morning. I'll check the chat room around 9am, to follow the removal of the Norfolk chick for examination by the vet. It is 9:02 and they will start soon...the vet has been delayed by traffic at a tunnel. the chat room has a record # of people logging in... 207 so far. It is read only on the special events portion. 9:29--the vet has arrived...there are 300 in the chat! 10:11am The eaglet is in the vets hands, and he is taking a biopsy. The growth has appeared to have grown very rapidly. It may not be Avian pox. The parents are in the air circling the nest. There are 340 people in the chat!

life can be so sad sometimes huh...
I havent been eagel cam watching this season as I get too absorbed, and am time - strapped multitask mode since my hubby's recent illness flares...... I hope those little injured ones heal well, and my prayers for the Norfolk eagle family, especially the sick lil one, plus that the others wont have or get this. .
