SUNDAY, JUNE 3,2012

I would like to introduce you to Thulane the male Black Eagle....his markings are the white V on his back....he only seen 5% of the time brooding the eggs and after the chick hatches and grows up he's only seen bringing prey to the nest for the chick and Emoyeni until the eaglet fledges then they both teach the eaglet together to hunt with them Left thumb upCool cool eh

Good morning! Hello

Thanks for the s'caps cococat and Judy! Grin

This should be day 43 or 44 for the eggs, but I see no signs of a hatch underway. Both are still there, and usually a few days before a hatch is to take place, one of the adults bring food to the nest. Puzzled Maybe we're going to have a late-bloomer?

Judy, how do you know for certain that's Thulane in your s'caps? There's very little to distinguish him from Emoyeni, unless they're both on the nest at the same time. She's on the nest incubating an average of 70% of the time, and Thulane, only 30%. Just curious that maybe you see something that is a tell-tale sign of one from the other.

Hello Judy & Nightowl
Great capture of the 2 eggs Nightowl. The Black Eagle does not seem to roll the eggs as much as the Baldies do. Ha Ha...just as I am typing this she gets up and digs in the bowl and it looks like there was some kind of roll.
