Hi,
Caught the end of a feeding this AM. The nest is loaded with fish. There is such a visible difference between these two now . I should get used to that but I am still amazed at how they grow up and become adults.

All seems well this morning. These 2 look like very curious little eaglets.

Good morning
Morning feeding and both are getting lots of bites. Did not see any bonking. Two very adorable chicks.

As large as I know this nest is, it looks small from this angle.
I really love this tree that this nest is in. It is a beautiful sycamore. perfect for a nest. When I was young we had a large sycamore with a swing. Memories. In an eagle there is all the wisdom of the world. Lame Deer

These two are growing up. Very even tempered eaglets.
Not too fond of the camera angle but better than nothing. They are resting comfortably before their new day begins.
I have seen lots of food on this nest.

Catching up here....
Male E/88 (the younger chick) returned to the nest regularly after his fledge at 6:42 am on June 15, and was still visiting the nest and being fed as of July 14. He has a tracker and was given the name Duke for tracking purposes, and you can follow his travels here.
E/87 appeared to have an accidental fledge - missing a landing while flying to a branch at 7:41 pm on June 16 - and was not seen again; there was a search a few days later, and staff continued to monitor the area. Because E88 continued to visit the nest and be fed there for at least another month, I sadly think E/87 did not survive. The parents might have fed her away from the nest initially, but she wouldn't survive long unless she could fly at least a little - and if she could fly, she would have made her way back to the nest if there was food there.
Happily E/88 seems to be doing great!
