Quick look at the stills shows that the eaglets have been up and around the nest. they have not been visited by a parent and they have not had food this morning. That has been a pattern the last few days.

5:10 eaglets are seen on the nest at sunrise.
5:15 to 5:40 KC and Banner have roamed the nest are then settle at 8 and 10. Banner is on the fence until 6:16 then moves to 11.
6:38 both are at 11.
7:12 they are both down at 10.
7:43 both are down in the shade at 10. No parent and no food. I checked the stills several times yesterday and the parents did not visit the nest. I am in and out today and will keep watch to see when they arrive. Banner got more nestovers than fed and KC had quite a crop Saturday night. It was the first time I saw KC cover the food with his wings and peck at Banner who then moved away, but came in a grabbed a few bites and fish that fell to the nest floor. (I am not alarmed but hope to see the parents and food today.)

This was a quick visit and just look at this mantling over the food if there was any. If there was food the eaglet downed it in 2 minutes. It is VERY Windy along the front range.



watching for food continues......

Food drop watch has ended.
1:22 to 1:30 Parents arrived together with food. Banner was there in a flash....mantled it and protected it and then ate and shared with KC. The parent left at 1:24 and these little ones are now self feeding...strongly pulling the meat up to eat it and even holding the food down with their feet.




The other eaglet is behind the one in front of the cam
I am

low 50's overnight and into the low 70's today.

5:20 One eaglet is up and the other remains snoozing in center of nest.
5:28 Both eaglets are up and active. One is wingflapping and the other is checking nestovers at 3.
6 to 6:46 Eaglets are at 3 and 12. They have been busy stretching, wingflapping, short lift offs, and fence perching.
6:46 to 7:52 First one parent arrives with food at 6. All have breakfast. Then the other adult comes in also and they eat and roam the nest.
7:52 both parents are off the nest.
8:54 to 9:10 KC and Banner are resting in the middle of the nest.




(times on the pics continue to be incorrect)

It has been a windy afternoon. The eaglets have been rather quiet and often have been down in the center of the nest.

Do we know if they have been banded. This looks like it may be a band but it is really hard to tell. What does anyone think???



This afternoon there was a small food drop....One eaglet mantled over it but ate rather than behaving aggressively to the other eaglet. It is not seen on the stills but was interesting to watch. It seemed they both had some of the snack.

The eaglets have been up since 5:30. They have been watching below from 8. They have pecked around the nest at nestovers and have been perched on the fence. It is another warm sunny day.

The lets were up on the fence at sunrise.

They have been up at 7 and 11 most of the morning. They have not had a food drop.

Thank goodness they did not get hail or rain yesterday when the storms were blowing through the area.



I am having some problems with my computer so I may not get back here until it is fixed again.

The eaglets have been up and around the nest all afternoon. They had a visit from Pa at about 4:00. He stayed for about 45 min. They have been perching on the fence much of the day.
