.I have a new video for y'all from LadyHawk! :vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVKrwA6n5qg SWF stick wars 1-22-20.jpg From Lady Hawk Harriet and M have been working hard on the nest today and spending more time in the nest tree and bonding more than they usually do. The changes to their normal ...

I see where many people refer to E14 as "she"...was there a DNA test done that determined E14 was female? I miss that precious little feisty eaglet. I have way too much time on my hands now where for the past four seasons I spent hours viewing the nest and the antics of the little ones and the work...

Lady Hawk posted these photos of how the E14 memorial looks now---even more gifts for our baby! Our local Florida fans are amazing and awesome!!

The outpouring of love for our little one makes me so teary eyed!!

..

I know that I posted pictures of the memorial benches yesterday but this morning I have found this video by Lady Hawk of the memorial as seen from our cam 1. I had no idea that we could see that far that clearly! :ty: LadyHawk!! [/color] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nAWklppFtI&feature=share&fbc...

I thought all of you might like to see just how much our little E14 was loved by those who live near the nest. Quite a memorial is building up next to the pasture. These are the benches where you usually find the "ground crew".

I have a few photos here that were taken up in the tree when E14 was being removed from the nest. I'm going to post the links rather than the pictures themselves so that you can decide if you want to see them. From CROW - Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife, Inc. A portion of the eaglet was c...

luv_eaglets Let me try to explain. Everything happened so fast with E14 and the Pritchetts and CROW worked all night trying to get the permits needed to enter an active nest. It has to be approved. You add to that the fact that night came very quickly and they could not do anything in the dark. By ...

We have the report from CROW already --- CROW - Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife, Inc.

.Thank you JudyB, Carolyn, Suemac and everybody who has posted here for your kind words and pictures! We will be having a chat at about 1:30 PM EST if anybody here cares to join us.

. All of us on the mod team at SWFEC are just totally devastated by the loss of our baby E14. I just am so sad that I have no words right now. Our poor baby is at peace and has crossed over to be with Ozzie and E3 and E5. We will be having a chat this morning to allow everybody to express their grie...

WOW! We had something happen yesterday afternoon that I had hoped we would never see at the nest! A drone zeroed in on our nest ! Who knows where it came from but M15 seemed to be quite disturbed by it. :( Lady Hawk was nice enough to do me a favor tonight and go back on the DVR and make a video. :...
