:eag: 7:20am :fish: Mama delivers a fish and Ch'aak' claims the fish.

7:23am - Mama steps away from the fish (red dot) and Ch'aak' starts self feeding.
Anaaski is right next to the fish but only watches...and waits.

Ch'aak' continues to eat the fish...and Anaaski continues to watch.

:eag: 8:15am - Papa arrived to the nest and moves the fish left overs towards the middle of his eaglets.
(The white thing in the forefront of this s'cap is what's left of the plastic bag...)

Papa offers Ch'aak' some fish (red dot) and then...

Anaaski grabs the next fish bite from Papa!
(Anaaski keeps on grabbing fish bites from Papa! Seems like Ch'aak' is just too full right now to eat anymore and
just keeps on watching Anaaski grabbing fish from Papa.)

:eag: 1:00pm - Mama arrives to the nest with some kind of red meat.
(Mama has dirty tails feathers...but they are beautiful anyway...) :yes:

Not sure what kind of meat this is. :chin:

The eaglets wait for Mama to start the feeding. Both eaglets got some of this food and
Mama ate pieces from it, too.

So, here is another look of Ch'aak's large crop.

Marianne nice to see you here. I also wish they wouldn't bring in plastic bags but I'm sure eaglets have eaten much worse and survived ;)

Journi thanks so much for your dedication to watching this nest. You are providing some great coverage of the activities of both Chaak and Anaaski as they grow stronger each day. I saw Dee's paintings on Glacier Gardens Facebook page. She is very talented!

I am still trying to catch up with my nest visits and submitting my observations for the WiTS mapping program. I have one more day on Monday planned and that might be the last one for this season :thumlft: Then I will start visiting and documenting Osprey nests.

:wave: Hi Sassyk! Thanks! It's my pleasure to be able to document what I can here in this wonderful HWF forum opportunity as we watch Ch'aak' & Anaaski growing up. I totally understand how much time and dedication it takes to watch and document the wild ones! Thank you for all that you are doing for them! :thumlft:

Marianne - You know how much watching Ch'aak' and Annaski eating plastic concerns me.
The only good thing that has come from witnessing this, for me, has turned-up my passion to do what I can to help bring this plastic pollution awareness to the world even more!
It's always good to see you here!

Good afternoon Journi and I watched gg4 and gg5 calling to a parent about 9:18 am and then Mom landed on the nest. Both eaglets immediately rushed her but I don’t think she had any food. She walked over to a piece of leftover salmon and started to feed them. Anaaski received the first bite but then Ch’aak’ turned on Anaaski and put him in submission. Ch’aak’ received all the rest of the bites. Every now and then Asaaski tried to sneak a bite but Ch’aak’ was having no part of it and attacked and pounced on Anaaski multiple times. Anaaski finally turned and walked away. Finally after Ch’aak’ seemed to be full, Anaaski went behind his sibling and manged to received several pieces of fish u til Ch’aak’ got her second wind and pounced on Anaaski again. Ch’aak received almost the entire meal although I don’t think Anaaski was all that hungry bc he didn’t put forth too much effort to snatch and grab pieces.

Ch’aak pouncing on Anaaski for the 3rd time. Really being a “ meany” toward sibling today but it’s the eagle way.
