:bye 1: Bye Sandy, thanks for all the great reports and pics.

8:24 Trooper is back to feeding Coola. Ma calls out from higher up in the tree. Bella looks up at her.

8:47 Coola is now self-feeding and Trooper flies off. Ma is still up in the tree calling periodically.

9:47 I saw a parent fly off from above so assuming it is Ma that just arrived on the nest and is feeding the eaglets some of the bunny.

Hi Darlene & Sandy! Great to see the eaglets had a nice breakfast this morning. I was just looking at the rollback and like Darlene just posted, nothing much happening...after Ma fed the eaglets, and ate some for herself, she appeared to fly up onto the right branch around 10:09 am. Since then the eaglets have mostly been laying around.
