11:25 PM There have been no further visits and the chicks are sleeping peacefully.

Cont'd


7:21 pm The more than well fed chicks start refusing bites, so Mom has some for herself.

Meal over, and Mom having had her fill, she leaves at 7:32 pm.

and the chicks settle down for a nap.

Cont'd Finally one makes a move towards the pantry 6-052020 6-55-56 pm.jpg and the second one stretches, backs up for a PS and then decides h/s might be missing something and hip hops over to join in. 6-052020 6-57 pm.jpg Both chicks are getting fed and everything is quite civil as they take turns w...

Checking back on the DVR from where we last left our family...... Res in at 6:54 pm. Neither of the eaglets who awoke from their nap showed any interest other than a brief look. 6-052020 6-55 pm.jpg Mom didn’t bring any new food with her but the black bird brought in earlier has a substantial amount...

Out of sequence (many interruptions today) Some videos to go with JudyB's observations (post above this one) 8:57 am Sur in with some more breakie - bet he wishes he hadn't this is getting to be a habit ! :vid: Not again! (:24) 9:15 am Not sure if h/s is telling his sibling they're through and its h...

4:25 am Mom awake and calling out

3:58 am

It has been peaceful the rest of the evening and Mom has remained on her perch.

Looking back on the DVR to the last post by Bev...... There have been no visits that I could see until Mom came in at 10:20 pm. Until then Thor and Loki mostly just hung out and wandered around looking like they were waiting for a parent to come to the nest with food. 6-04-2020 8-25 pm.jpg They fina...

Mom just came to the nest with nothing in her talons. The kids are objecting quite loudly but at least she's not being shoved off the nest this time! 6-04-2020 10-15-37 am.jpg 6-04-2020 10-15-39am.jpg 6-04-2020 10-17 am.jpg Looking back on the DVR to Bev's last post - I didn't see any previous visit...

3:58 am One is preening while the other is asleep. The evening was peaceful and there were no more visits.

Looking back on the DVR to JudyB’s last post...... There were 4 visits from Mom, each lasting less than a minute; I don't know which chick got what or even if they both got something! But it was fun to watch! Visit #1 – 6:58 pm Mom arrived at the nest empty taloned and I think Thor - simply because ...

Continued.... a clearer view of the egg 6-02-2020 9-13-38 pm.jpg I had two more posts with scaps done about the feed itself and my computer went wild and I lost everything! Including all my Firefox settings! Too tired to do the posts again never mind set up FF. What a waste of time! For what it's wo...

Continued ..... Kids were on their own from my last post until 9:13 pm. They hung out doing eaglet things plus a lot of sleeping. 6-02-2020 9-13-23 pm.jpg 9:13 pm Mom arrived with a large bird of some kind and as she was landing with her prey an amazing thing happened - an egg landed as well! Please...

Looking back on the DVR to Bev's last post...... Sur (right eye dark) in at 3:41 pm bringing with him prey encased in moss and attached to a long thin branch. Sur first went for a leftover before tackling the prey. Prepping the meal, Eaglet one (E1 - can't ID them!)) was up first, then was joined by...

Continued..... Mom left at 9:42 by way of the perch. 6-01-2020 9-42 pm.jpg They settled down for the night at 9:42 pm. 6-01-2020 9-49 pm.jpg 3:58 am No more visits, no one on the perch tonight. Aside from getting up for a few minutes to take care of business and do a bit of preening, the kids have b...

Continued....... Mom arrived at 9:21 pm, She found what was left from the previous feeding and began picking the nones clean. 6-01-2020 9-21 pm.jpg Thor was first to get fed 6-01-2020 9-23 pm.jpg Then finally Loki had a turn – not as much as Thor but at least it was some. 6-01-2020 9-35 pm.jpg

Continued ..... Thor was getting huge pieces while Loki was only managing to pull off small bits. 6-01-2020 7-57 pm.jpg Sur left at 7:59 pm Both chicks continued to work on the leftover. In the end, Thor got more but Loki did all right. 6-01-2020 7-59 pm.jpg By 8:34 both retired to their sleeping sp...

Looking back on the DVR to the last post by Bev..... The chicks were on their own until Sur arrived at 7:50 pm with something large and partially eaten. Sur had a huge crop! There was one chick on either side of him. From the color of the legs (seen later) and the body language, I think the chick be...

2:33 am There were no further visits after Sur's 8:59 feed. Maybe Mom got a pass after the miserable weather she had to put up with last night!

2:28 am Both chicks sleeping soundly.

Thor must have had enough because he backed off from the feed and Dad tuned towards Loki. 5-31-2020 9-08 pm.jpg Meal all gone at 9:08 pm, Sur left. 5-31-2020 9-08-36 pm.jpg After a bit of stretching and flapping, the chicks headed to their sleeping spot and settled down. 5-31-2020 9-15 pm.jpg

1:56 am Looking back on the DVR...... There were no visits since the last post until Sur flew in at 8:59 pm with what looks like a rat or a vole. 5-31-2020 8-59-07 pm.jpg it appears that Thor (more black feathers on h/h legs) was first up to be fed and Loki hung back. 5-31-2020 8-59 pm.jpg Loki made...

Sorry, just a brief outline of the evening - not feeling too well. 7:29 pm Adult in, found leftover and ate most of it herself (I think Res) One chick (I think Loki) ate what little there was (not much there to begin) other chick not particularly interested,, Adult left 7:47 pm. Adult in at 7:43 wit...

Mom fed the remainder to Loki. The meal was over at 8:08 and Mom left. 5-29-2020 8-08 pm.jpg Thor having had h/h fill moved to the back of the trunk and Loki moved to what remained of what Thor had been working on. 5-29-2020 8-12 pm.jpg At 8:21 Loki quit working on Thor’s leftover and moved to the s...

7:57 pm Res in with a partially eaten food item. 5-29-2020 7-57 pm.jpg One chick (Thor) was busy working on a leftover so Loki was first up and being fed for a couple of minutes before Thor joined the feed. 5-29-2020 7-59 pm.jpg Mom continued to feed Loki, so Thor helped h/h self managing to get man...

For a minute there I thought h/s might make an attempt to steal but h/s backed off. 5-29-2020 2-35 pm.jpg Loki continued to watch Thor until h/s paused then Loki moved in and Thor allowed h/h to "steal" what was left of the prey and finish it. 5-29-2020 2-38 pm.jpg Dad left at 2:37 pm 5-29-2020 2-37...

Loki (less leg feathering than the other one) backed off and headed towards Dad who had meanwhile found some nestovers. 5-29-2020 2-28-30 pm.jpg Dad was busy eating but Loki moved in and started snatching bites and Sur gave in and continued to feed Loki - although there wasn't much there. Meanwhile,...

Hi judy, Just finishing up an account of the 2:27 feed. 4:04 pm Looking back to the last post time: There were no visits from a parent until 2:27 pm. I think it was Sur that arrived at the nest behind the trunk where an eaglet (Loki) was sleeping, a spot that is not usually used for a landing. 5-29-...

Thanks everyone for all the great observations, scaps, and videos - I feel like a haven't missed a thing! Thanks Bev, it was nice to get together with a friend for the first time in 3 months! Both of us have been self isolating with kids to do our shopping for us so felt comfortable getting together...

8:30 pm Adult in with a huge fish - cam starting to pixelate! Moving to South Cam.
Mom eating a good portion herself before offering bites to Loki.
8:50 pm Fish all gone, Mom leaves by way of her perch.

7:25 pm Within seconds after Sur left, Mom arrived (not enough time for Sur to get another meal!) again with the baby bird. I'm not going to wait around to see if it is alive! 5-26-2020 7-25 pm.jpg From the thumbnail, Thor got all this meal again! 7:30 pm Feed over, Mom left. 5-26-2020 7-29 pm.jpg
