:eag: A statement from the SWFEC Live Chat tonight:

Feb 3, 8:02 PM
samour17 (Admin): As we close I would like to share this with all of you. The Pritchetts are aware that Harriet has not been to the nest since Thursday afternoon. CROW has been contacted, but at this time there is nothing they can do. M15 has been protecting the eaglets from an intruder and has provided food. If Harriet doesn’t come back we are not sure what FWC will decide to do. It is up to them, not the Pritchetts. All we can do is wait and see what transpires. CROW has not admitted any injured eagles as of today.

Hoping the late crew will keep an eye on the nest during the night? It’s hard not to worry; but all of the great folks and eagle experts who are posting regularly on this site, have been very reassuring and positive. Thank you for all you do!! Praying for Harriet tonight.

.. Thank you lovinnature for posting the link to the WINK story. I'm going to post one of the photos from it and I have another story whose link I will post too.


The WINK article mentioned that M locked talons and "fought" with up to as many as 3 other eagles. Here is the visual proof!

Keeping positive thoughts and lifting prayers up for Harriet’s safe return soon; also give M15 the strength to protect the nest and provide for the EEs.

.. Our beloved M15 takes care of and protects his eaglets in this video by Lady Hawk :rh:


There was an intruder up in the top of the tree -- scaps are from the video

SWFL Eagles ~ AMAZING M15 DEFENDS & PROTECTS E's FROM INTRUDER! Chases Off Nest Tree 3 Times! 2.3.23

M15 did a lot of talking as if to warn the intruder to leave his tree
SWF   a lolt of talking  2   2-3-23.jpg


From Lady Hawk -- Feb 3, 2023

Harriet was last seen yesterday around 5:36pm flying off the attic & she has not been seen since. M15 has been amazing today bringing in rabbit for the E's and feeding them in the morning. However, just before noon, M15 was on the attic when he saw an intruder flying in. He immediately dropped down to the nest to defend and protect the E's. The intruder landed briefly on the veranda and M15 chased it off. E21 was aggressive at this time to E22. The intruder flew around and landed on the treetop branches where it stayed for almost 3 hours. M15 vocalized, alerted and kept the E's protected - he was amazing.


The intruder was flushed out of the tree one time
SWF   down goes intruder 2  2-3-23.jpg

Finally M15 flies up and knocks the intruder off the branch and he gives chase - finally landing back on the attic as the intruder flew north. But the intruder came back & lands on the upper branches again while M15 remained on the nest. After several minutes, M15 flew up and chased the intruder off a second time. He lands on the upper perch and the intruder flies off but circles the nest tree. The intruder heads east and M returns to the nest to be with the E's.


Intruder flushed out a second time
SWF   second time   2-3-23.jpg


The intruder returned a third time about an hour & 15 minutes later and lands in the upper branches. M15 flies up to the branch and the intruder flies off & heads north. M15 stays on the upper perch keeping watch. M15 will fly off two more times a half hour later in the same direction and then return to the attic. M15 will brood the E's tonight alone keeping them safe as we hope and wait for Harriet to return. Thank you for watching!


And finally a third time!
