It was so wonderful to see this pair do so well after two very sad years.
Thank you, Farniente, for your coverage here!
All three eaglets fledged successfully. Youngest eagle Ahote (meaning "restless one" - very appropriate!) fledged first, on June 2nd. It may have been a bit unintentional - he was hovering very high, and drifted over to a different part of the ridge with no easy path back without flying - and it took him a couple of days to get back, though it wasn't very far. His band is 24/D.
Kana’kini, who I believe is the oldest, was the next to fledge, on June 10. She was banded 25/D.
Sky - band 23/D - took his time before trying the "flying" thing; he fledged on June 22, at 104 days old, or almost 15 weeks.
I've updated the opening post with the significant dates for the year.
