So the rain has finally stopped.. ::ds:: We got some hard rain on Sunday.. I wanted to climb the tree with an umbrella to cover the nest... ::dang::
Next few days are supposed to be dry and some sun.. ::pray:: I know the Eagles will appreciate that.. ::groove::

Very cool...I haven't seen a eagle all winter they probably up on the open river once the ice is gone I'll see them daily...my niebor came up last summer and backed his truck up to unload a fridge before he could open the door a eagle snatched a full grown bunnie and flew off he still talking about that...theyve always been here but getting thick in last 20 years...they will take your lap dawg and fly away with it!!! You see them doing fly overs this time of year checking bird feeders for birds squirrel and bunnies...

Seems that there has been a raccoon that is persistent to get to the eggs the past few nights!! Being chased away by both eagles 🦅

Last year I was concerned about the survival of the smaller chick who got picked on a lot by his big brother. Now, with three eaglets I don't know if I can stand the tension. ::paranoid::

Saw the raccoon retreat the other night. Hope he is smart enough to give up the effort. I am also watching a nest in CA on YouTube.

It just seems to me that the mom doesn't do a very good job of distributing the food. It looks like one eaglet is getting 90% of the food. Yet they are all growing.

The three Pennsylvania eaglets have grown pretty quickly. Unfortunately the California nest I was watching ended with the eggs be destroyed by ravens.
