Through the telescope.
I was lucky and when watching witnessed a shift change. It is still hard to tell if we have one or two eaglets but I suspect 2. :) One flew in with food and the other flew to the branch at the side (a favourite branch). Click to enlarge. :) Taken about 5:40am.

Thats great news Marg & Sandra! I'm happy to hear that this pair have 1 and maybe even 2 eaglets.

All seems to be going well this season! :)

Great proof of one big eaglet Marg! I visited on the 4th, found Pa on the nest calling, facing the Strait. I should have followed his body language more carefully because after the fact I can see he was getting ready to fly out. I missed the shot. He flew toward the water and Wilson Creek.
On speaking with another neighbour, she said there is 1, possibly 2 in the nest. That's 2 neighbours who have worded it that way but like you and me, have only seen 1.

I am still only seeing one big eaglet and we look often.
One parent on branch and one big eaglet lying down occasionally I see a wing flap! If I see two big eaglets I'll certainly post a picture taken through the telescope from 300' up.

Good morning everyone. I've been waiting for our lone eaglet to do some wingercizing and capture it although we've seen it doing that I managed to get a few pics today. lol When I was taking the pics I wasn't sure if it was still wingercizing. :D It won't be long before it fledges.

Hi Marg. Very good news :woohoo:

Does your scope have a camera in it or attached to it? Just wondering because you are getting some very nice photos :thumlft:
