Started watching the cam before full daylight. Was fortunate enough to see the complete first feeding. Both eaglets ate breakfast.

Mom sees her little eaglets begin to wake; she stretches her wings to get the day started.

Next order of business for Mom is to call Dad - he didn't show.

First bite of food served to Big.

Little gets a big bite.

Last bite of food went to Big. Mom is finished with breakfast.

Eaglets getting ready to be tucked-in. Mom gets comfortable with the 'lets completely under her.

10:12 Lets covered from the wind but may be on the front porch.
10:19 Eagle is facing 12. Then it gets up and exits from 9. Little moves to get closer to Big. Big is peeping. Both lets sit up and look around.
10:20 Eagle stands of fence then moves to 6.
10:21 Settles over the eaglets facing 12.

Looks foggy or rainy here. It sure is windy.

Morning feeding went well; both 'lets ate breakfast. Eaglets were trying to get accustomed to their new nest fluff barrier; therefore, Big Sis was not as active as usual. Mom often gazed about while feeding; most likely traffic in the area.

Little gets a bite.

Big Sis eats.
