Food has been delivered but it's gross so I won't post a pic of it. Eaglets are closer to be back into the full nest bowl, but in a much better location. Nest is swaying in winds. Mom is covering them with grasses.

Pa did a food drop, Ma managed to get the eaglets to move into the middle of the nest bowl and now all seems to be good, the nest is slightly rocking in the wind and the wind song is playing in the background. I think Mother Nature's lullaby is doing a great job.

I am signing off for the night, hopefully someone else will be able to post some night time scraps.

Until tomorrow, stay safe family

The IR is on and Mom is settled over the kids for the night. All appears calm although the nest appears to be swaying some so I guess the wind is blowing. Crickets are singing a nighttime lullaby. Hope I can get back during the day tomorrow. Thanks Rainna for all your posts and pictures. Those little ones are so cute and at least one is going to be an escape artist. :offtobed: :zzz:

Starting to become concerned about the little one, h/she wants to get back under mom, but can't seem to manage it.

Oh Philjo56France,
You brought the first giggle to my not so fresh eyes this morning. Love the game and so far these eyes have found 2 of the mice, nibbles is bringing in many "clean up crew" these days, he best be careful before he or one of the others become part of a meal. Could only find 2, hubby said your seeing double and maybe to much wine.

Ma is tucked in, looks like you can just see a tiny bit of gray fuzzy just under her breast. The nest is still swaying to and fro and I do not see any sign of Nibbles and Company. Hope for another great day at this nest with lots of good things to eat!

Adult is up and stretching, twilling for the partner to come in now. All 3 precious bab's look good.
Partner arrives and picks up a nestover for feeding, looks like part of a fish. Nibbles was in.

All is good at the nest this morning. Baby's are growing and so far it seems like the bonking is minimal. I anticipate a fish delivery soon.

Does anyone know if they name the eaglets at this nest?
