When will DN14 fledge? DN14 turned 82 days old today, which prompted us to look at previous fledges! I've included sex where verified by measurements. While males fledge earlier than females on average (Brett's study found that males averaged 77 days and females averaged 78 days) some males fledge late, as you'll see below.
Is DN14 the latest eaglet to fledge? Not yet! That honor belongs to DN1, a lone eaglet who fledged from the North Nest at 83 days of age. Eaglets that fledged between 82 and 80 days of age include D1 (F), D14 (M), D22 (unknown/U), D27 (F), and D31 (U). We hope DN14 takes DN13's flying lessons to heart and have our talons crossed for fledge! Go DN14!
What about fledge in Decorah? If hatch started in Decorah on the evening of April 4 (our earliest guess), we should see fledge between now (74 days) and next weekend. Our boots on the ground are watching!
Decorah North
2016: DN1 fledged at 83 days
2017: DN4 fledged at 74 days and DN5 fledged at 79 days
2019: DN9 was routed from the nest by blackflies at 67 days

The Decorah Eagles and 2021/2022
June 23, 2021 RaptorResource
We’re getting a lot of questions about watching the Decorah Eagles in the 2021/2022 season. John talked about this during our interview with Iowa Public TV last night and I wanted to share it with the wider world.
Are we going to be able to watch the Decorah Eagles next season? It’s gotten very complicated. The N3 nest tree (as many of you know from Robin’s Day Trips) is dead. Even if the landowner was excited about streaming, we can’t climb the tree to install cameras and we don’t know how well we can see them from adjacent trees, or how long those trees will remain healthy.
Bald eagles tend to abandon nest trees once the crown has died back and stopped producing leaves, so we don’t even know whether Mom and DM2 will stay. They could return to the hatchery and N2B or build a new nest in another tree. Eagle researcher Mark Stahlmaster didn’t count eagle nests as abandoned until they went five years without use, which gives us hope for N2B. Here’s a video that gave several of you hope for a new nest at N1. Mom looks lovely and neither of the eagles seem ready to rent out N2B!
