From May 28th---


These is not fishies!



A little morning practice



A nice big black beak, smooth "hair" and wind ruffled back feathers.

Flapping on the edge of the nest...maybe #4?



A little wingersizing and you can see the tail feathers still growing in.



Lunch time--the nest looks a lot smaller from this cam angle!

I'm not sure if this is a big stretch or a PS!



I bet I could fly right now.



Jean---here's the eaglet with the white around it;'s eyes

Big wings on one eaglet and big feathers on the other.



Wingersizing with a watcher



Here I go!!!

A night flight
