11:57 am Dad back with the fish, headless now, Hurrah!

Stu up in a flash and wanting to be fed.

Dad looking all around for mum. Where is Mum? I haven't seen her all morning.

12:03 pm Still looking for mum as Stu eager to be fed, was pecking at the fish.

12:06 pm Dad has not started feeding and Stu looks desperate for food. Ad

12:18 PM Still no Mum and Dad very concerned. Stu is too young to self-feed and has given up pecking at the fish and is begging Dad to feed him. Dad unfortunately is not.

12:22 PM Dad just flew off the nest, leaving the fish as Stu was partially covering it. What will happen now?

12:30 PM Poor hungry eaglet sitting on the food he badly wants and needs to injest. Still no Mum to feed him.

I have to leave for awhile, hate to go.

Dad and the headless fish, waiting with Stu for Mom to show



Dad left and Stu is looking at the fish as if it should do something - like mabebe break into bits and feed itself to him?

PS Bluebird and Terry - Thank you for the kind words regarding my scaps. It is always nice to have words of appreciation.

Poor baby is attempting to self-feed but not making very much progress. Just got here and just started running video!

Good to see you, BET and Darlene. I wonder where Mum has gone and whether Dad will come back and feed this
beauty. Reading the history of these Eagles there seem to be a lot of misfortunes. Hope that all goes well here.

12:40 I think this is mom just arrived with the pantaloons? Hasn't started feeding yet though! Not sure what parent, the beak looks darker like dad. At least the parent has pulled the fish out and it looks like a feeding might start. It is very windy and hard to focus, I'm getting a little sea sick!

Feeding in progress. I really am getting nauseated watching the sway of the nest but I'm running video and will keep checking it!

1245 It was Dad returning. He continued to look for Mom. Finally has started feeding STu. Image is too broken up to post. He feeds Stu a bite and then looks all about for Mom. Then another bite and another look around.

Here is the best image I have so far



Another a bit better
