Parent broods chicks. #3 egg is still intact.



I think this is dad on the nest. Mom has a dark spot on her head..a feather or two.

This nest is built on a platform. It looks sooo big.

8:47 Both on the nest and both feeding the eaglets that can not be seen.

Happy to see a thread here for the new Whitehorse nest! Just after they went online I emailed them with questions about the pair and nest. I tried to post links here to my blog posts of the information they provided to me, but it was identified as spam and the post here deleted. sigh. Anyway, one quick piece of info is that the third egg was laid April 15, making today day 35!

8:30 pm Both adults on the nest - waiting for third hatch??
