wr2 What a cutie.....so glad this little one is here.....
6:54 Parent faces 7 and cheeps a bit. The little ones are tucked under and the wind is blowing.

Hooray, another hatch! Missed that one too, of course, but I'm glad the babies are both doing well. So very exciting! The camera is so clear, and now we've got a whole long weekend to watch and enjoy.

Happy Easter everyone!

7:02 Watchful parent continues to brood the 2 eaglets.

7:03 Eagle is looking down at the chicks that are tucked under her. No cheeping from the eaglets.

7:08 Brooding continues.

7:10 This has been a calm brooding time for the parent.....no loud calls or intruders bothering it.

7:16 Parent does some preening and then tucks its head and rests.

7:18 Parent begins to dig in the nest. Stlll no cheeps heard. Lifts up and looks down at eaglets.

7:20 Can hear crows cawing nearby. Parent watches out toward the dark waters.

7:21 Crows heard again but are farther away now.

7:23 Parent gets up and the eaglets are snuggled in egg cup. The Parent shifts to face 10. Did not get a snap as parent was not up very long.

7:28 am
Mom is up and the chicks are squirming. The small chick is still having problems with it's balance.

7:29 am
Oldest chick is eating but the other chick is still falling down each time he tries to sit upright.

7:31 am
He's trying so hard to have Mom feed him but she is ignorning him as the oldest chick gobbles down his meal

7:32 am
Poor little guy has gone with no meal again.

I really am worried that there may be something wrong with this youngest chick. I hope I'm wrong.

7:28 #2 lifted his head. It was very tough to do and it didn't last long but he made it!!
7:31 am -feeding #1 for 2mins now #2 trying sooo hard to get some

7:32 feed is over

7:29 Parent begins to feed the eaglets.

7:30~7:32 The oldest chick is fed about 5 bites. The younger one keeps falling over but does make beak contact once with Ma.

The feeding ends and Ma begins to brood again facing 1.
