2:24PM Thanks Marg!! Hi JTW nice to see you back!

there is a feeding ongoing up at about 1oclock
adult is largely out of view and laf'let's top half is not in the frame.




2:38PM
feeding continues.

2:22 Returned to the computer to see a feeding in progress. I can only see the eaglet from the neck down, and just the lower portion of the adult, but the movement tells me what is happening, of course. It seems funny looking - like its feet are too big for its body.

2:30 Chick looked like it was done and wanting to rest but Mama came back in with more food and the chick got right back up. Can now see the heads occasionally as teh food is passed from Mama to baby. So cute. It's got that kind of "adorable ugliness".

Yet again I'm present to the amazing privilege we have of being able to watch this chick's life unfold.

2:48PM
Well they are both still only partly visible at the top of the screen but I'm pretty sure the feeding is done.


2:50PM both adult on the nest




the arriving adult stays other leaves as far as I could tell.


2:56PM Laflet is now alone, mid nest preening his 'tummy'

3:20PM adult in
defeathering ensues...

recording...


3:25PM still defeathering... laf'let hasn't indicated any desire to be fed yet.

3:28PM adult ate a large mouthful, laflet still snoozed out at 11oclock
back to defeathering.

3:30 adult ate another big bite and laflet was watching... still not too interested in eating.



3;32 PM laflet up and attentive now.

An unobscured view of a feeding

3:33PM
got a bite

wow a VERY nice opportunity to see a feeding. EveryThing co-operated! I took almost 10 minutes of video. Please check back to see it. We may not get this lucky again

3:44PM I think laflet is too full to take another bite but is still right there ready to try
YEP taking more while laying down.

Up again
Recordng.....

Laf'let keeps on eating

3:59PM

adult was digging near the tree trunk near 6oclock and finally disldged some debris from the right side of the 'cheek'

Laflet is at 12oclock snoozing I presume.

The wind is stll almost dead calm and the view of the main part of the nest is the best we've had in quite some time
