Ondabebe, Connick is one laid- back eaglet. When you have no competition and 2 doting parents, they are SPOILED. I see the same thing in my Berry College eagle nest. Thanks for all your great reporting here. Stop by and visit me at Berry College sometime. :)
:bye 1: Kitcat, I totally agree Connick is one lay-back eaglet and Connie especially appears to be in no hurry to see Connick go. Thank You, I am trying my best to document what I can. Yes I will have to drop by. Just been so busy. 3 eaglets now in Port Tobacco. :)

8.11Pm and Connick is alone. Maybe one of the parents will still visit. Connick grows more restless and anxious every day on the nest. Many times I have felt that when Connie flies away from the right branch you see how Connick just wants to go with her.

8.14.20 Connick self-feeds and does not do a bad job of it but Momma Connie comes in and feeds. She can't see her baby wait that long for food. She doesn't feed the whole fish to Connick and leaves enough for Connick to practice on itself
