8:01 1 eaglet is flat down in the nest. It is very windy.

8:12 I returned to see one eaglet in the nest feeding. It finished eating at 8:26

8:26 to 8:35 Glory is all over the nest with big wings and high hops.

There are two reasons Scout was not at this feeding. 1. She is no longer branching but has fledged. 2. she was not hungry. She is always at a meal so I will keep watching to see her return....

8:37 to 8:40 Glory rests at 5 and then moves about the nest again.

8:43 Mom incoming at 6. Looks around. Glory stands at 3. Very interesting. Glory approaches mom and mom moves to 12. Glory then moves to the prey and stands on it. Glory then moves to 12 and mom moves to 3 and then to the prey and moves it toward 3.


8:48 Mom exits from 5 and Glory picks up the prey and feeds a bit. Still no sign of Scout.

One of the parents just brought food in and Glory was very aggresive with it I thought at first it was dad but then i caught a glint of a band on the leg Glory was chasing her around the nest and mom was running and would hang her head down sort of like very submissive then she finally got chased away.
It also looks like Glory is on her own tonight I sure hope scout is ok where she is.It is dark now so I don't know if she would atempt to come in now or not

Looks like we were both watching. It may be that Scout has fledged and with this wind is staying put. I will be watching a bit longer but then I am off to bed.

it was very interesting to watch the interaction between Ma and Glory.

June 17, 2011 low 50's to high 70's today.

I woke up early because of the fox, birds, and dogs greeting the morning. So at 4:25 Glory was standing on a windy nest.

5:35 Glory was at 2 and then eating at 12. He began to do big wing short flights all over the nest. Then back to eating. Imagine his surprise to have the food all to himself as Scout is not on the nest this morning.

7:30 No one is on the nest. I saw wing feathers above 7 so someone is there.

I'd say Glory has officially branched and Scout has fledged.

7:52 Glory incoming from 7. He is moving about the nest with big wing hops now. Then on the fence at 4.

7:58 Glory is off the nest again. I was posting so I did not see the exit.

Congratulations! Scout has fledged......so wonderful. And Glory branching.....all the posts here have been wonderful and the videos Jannice spectacular. Thank you both.

Carolyn glad you got the news.

8:44 One eaglet is at 3. Does big wings around the nest and goes to 12. Then it flies up on the branch at 12.



8:56 Glory is down on the nest at 9.

I sure hope Scout comes in soon or I'll worry all day

Let's hope we see both at the same time. As fast as Glory is moving about I can not always be sure which is which.

another great video, Jannice. I'm glad you got the part where mom came in with the food and Glory protected his food.

I'm off for a bit
