Good morning, everyone.

11:11 am
Shadow arrived with a large fish. Mom is calling. Simba is resting.

After a minute or two, Shadow started working on the fish, Simba got up and faced him, and Mom flew off. I missed Shadow moving the fish, but he brought it to the front. Simba was opening his beak but not calling that I could hear or reaching for food.

And then we had what I'm guessing is a photobomb by Mom - note the beak in the upper left corner.

It looked as if Simba was doing some self-feeding!

He/she is also doing some properly loud eaglet calls. Mom is in the nest with him/her now.

Thanks for your posts, Maddy!

Mom has gone back to her perch, and Simba is looking around.

Mom has flown off. Simba is up and preening - which I think is a very good sign!

Simba appeared to do a ps but wasn't where I could see how much or what color. Then he did a bit of flapping with a couple of nice hops!

He's lying down now, but looking alert.

Shadow just arrived with some pine needles and Simba rushed him, looking for food - and seemed annoyed to learn that there wasn't any. I know it's Shadow's job to work on the nest - and he probably isn't looking for advice from me - but I think this would be a good time for him to bring another fish. :love:

2:29 pm Thank you Maddy and JudyB. Judy we are constantly telling Shadow that its a good time for a fish. He doesn't listen to us either.

2:50 pm Looks to be a bit overcast today. Which is good and should help keep Simba cooler. He's been standing at the left for a while now.

3:01 pm The wind is picking up. Simba is squeeing. Good to actually hear the sounds.

3:06 pm Oh my goodness. Guess being overcast and windy doesn't matter. It's HOT there.

3:15 pm Simba is looking around quite a bit. Several small birds flying around the nest. He's still up and that is a good sign.

3:19 pm Really do hope the wind is helping to keep them cooler. Neither of them are panting.
