I know that I'm late to the party but I forgot that there was a Duke Farms thread here. Oooops
Anyways, 2 days ago the cam operator spent 40 minutes zeroed in on H17. This is real long and I know a lot of folks won't sit through the entire thing. But, there are some great close-ups. The Duke Farms "zoomer" did a wonderful job!

* I think this is Mom at 8.20Am with a fish. She can see H17 and trying to get him to come to the nest but unfortunately H17 doesn't and Mom has breakfast and then leaves

* Mom back with another fish at 9.02Am and she is waiting for H17. She is so patient waiting with that fish.
* 9.13Am H17 appears dropping from the sky and landing on Mom
* H17 mantles but it not an aggressive mantle of any sort with Mom right beside him
* H17 finishes that fish quick and Mom looking for any nest overs in the nest she can find and feeding it to H17. It a very sweet interaction between Mom and H17 as he follows her around
* Mom finally leaves at 9.22Am and H17 takes a look himself for nest overs and then flies up to perch on the branching branch

H17 Returns To The Nest And Crashes On Mom

Note: I know they say H17 is a boy but with Mom in the nest with H17 that is one big male considering Mom is a pretty good size female

So happy to see this not so little guy doing so well… I was really worried about him! Glad he came back to the nest, I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to him yet.
