Journi, thank you for the "welcome back" :)

Had some rough years, but have been watching each season.
Just haven't been on the forums.

Didn't mean to exclude Lady Hawk ;)

Hello everyone. I visited the nest this morning.

:vid: VIDEO: https://youtu.be/XPa-d1brDzE

Waitin' On Dad! Magnificent Wingercising: E21 On Spike Top & E22 On Rails/Nest 03.22.23

The E's were "in charge" of the nest during my visit this morning as Dad/M15 was not seen and most likely was hunting and securing the territory. The E's watched all directions from the crib rail tops and vocalized occasionally. At 11 weeks of age, the E's are strengthening their wing and leg muscles preparing them for confident branching and then fledging from the nest. E22 winged and hopped high in the nest and top of the rails. We saw both E's study the spike extension before E21 launched to the top of the spike and wingercised with strength and great balance before flying back to the nest. The E's are 11 weeks old this week. (E21 is 77 days old & E22 is 74 days old today.) Harriet was last seen February 2nd. "I love you Mom" and miss you terribly.

On closer look, I notice that E 21 is "hanging 10" (primary flight feathers) over the spike on his horaltic pose. LOL Getting ready for some serious wind surfing? How beautiful s/he looks. And I'm SO proud of 22's new confidence since branching yesterday! Bumper car action to keep 21 away from its fish and eating all of it. How I love these two! :rh: :rh:

Brave 21 decided to branch to the porch too

From Lady Hawk -- Mar 22, 2023 #FLORIDA #baldeagles #eagle

E21 has been adventuresome today with flapping up to the spike extension and then back to the nest. E22 is watching E21 up on the spike remembering being up there yesterday! E21 comes back down and branches to the porch on the left side of the nest for the first time! E21 makes it looks so easy and enjoyed staying on the porch taking advantage of the new view of the pasture from this vantage point! ♥


Still on the porch--what is in 21's mouth?
SWF   21 on porch  2   3-22-23.jpg


Forty minutes later, E21 will head back to the nest and then right back up to the spike for more wingercising! E21 is gaining a lot of confidence and getting good exercise needed for flying up to the attic soon and then fledging! E21 is 76 days old today & E22 is 74 days old. Thank you for watching!


21jumps down from the porch and does some nice wingersizing in the nest.

From Lady Hawk -- Mar 22, 2023 #FLORIDA #baldeagles #eagle

We all knew this day would come when E22 would get its revenge on E21 for all those weeks of being bonked! E22 is hopping and flapping on the nest with a nestover while E21 is laying down. E21 gets up and goes to the rails and flaps its wings and they have a little disagreement & E22 gets mad and lunges at E21 and bites its head! E21 was shocked and stunned and goes submissive! I bet that victory & payback tasted sweet to E22!! lol E21 will go back to the rails and then do some flapping! All is forgiven!! Thank you for watching!

:ty: Mary for posting Lady Hawk's videos.
In the last s'cap "E21 goes submissive to E22". (see above s'cap). Look at E21's tail it is sideways.
It is not stuck not near a branch this time. It's just sideways. I have seen this sideways, tail action before. :)

From Lady Hawk -- Mar 22, 2023 #FLORIDA #baldeagles #eagle

It was an action packed morning with M15 flying in to the nest with a big fish! But the female intruder was hot on his tail chased him around the pasture and stealing his fish! She is seen eating it on the ground while M15 lands in the cam 2 tree panting and watching her. He will fly back to the U branch and the whole time this is happening, the E's are screaming at the top of their lungs! Their lunch was just taken and they can see the intruder eating it on the ground!! 🐠

The intruder ate the fish for about a half hour before being spooked by one of the horses in the pasture. She leaves the fish behind & goes to the pond and M15 sees the opportunity and he flies down to the ground and grabs the fish and flies back to the nest with it! The E's mantle and mob M15 and E21 gets the fish and eats it. Later M15 will bring in two more fish and E22 gets to eat those! M15 is an amazing eagle Dad - watching and waiting for just that right opportunity ensured he got the remainder of the fish he caught and the E's got to eat, This is an important lesson for the E's about survival in the wild! Thank you for watching!
