bump for the eaglets

Looks like the dad just dropped off dinner.

The little ones are turning into big ones fast!

This is a cool link. Thanks for sharing.
I'm hooked on this Eagle nest thing now.

This guy uses a branch on a pine tree near my deck at my Vermont house as a base for hunting expeditions..

Hmmmm.... Is there something going on in Iowa that I didnt see on the weather report?

From this cam picture and web page its 82, dark, with snow @ 3:01PMhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1337803454.jpg

Just last weekend, some friends happened to be near Decorah and checked it out. They said its a tourist attraction but a peacefull setting. New park benches and watch area. Somehow he was able to set-up a camera and tripod and took some pics.

It looks like they are trying to learn to fly this morning with the wind.

It is hilarious watching them practice their 'flying'. Looks like they are itching to get out of there, (except at meal time!)

On the Catalina Island cam RIGHT NOW they are banding the eaglets!

They are napping right now....how sweet! :)

Comical- Good fishin' as mom brings the hunt home. One chick gobbles the whole thing and moments later brings it back up. Next chick quickly grabs and claims it proudly. Starts nibbling but then stands over it. Too slow so mom decides afterall to grab it and scarf it down for herself.

Sad news.... One of the eaglets, D12, was found dead under an electrical pole apparently electrocuted. They have since modified the tops of that & other poles around the area.
I guess this is the 1st eaglet they know of that has been lost.

I heard about D12. That is truly sad news. Poor guy.

Sad to here that. Same situation I discovered this past Spring while on a country back road. In the distance I could see some odd shape near the top of a pole. Once I got closer realized what happened, noticed the hawk electrocuted and stuck tangled on pole. I stopped to look the scene over and then in the weeds by my feet was another young hawk downed. Took some pics and made me wonder how often this happens.

That link does't really work for me. I get silly ads, a few sec of the nest and then ads start over.????

Yeah the link seems to have changed since the eaglets have started fledging, (like all that avian lingo? ;) ). After a bunch of ads & older footage I do see live video.

Just watched a mouse scooting across the empty nest.. to get NAILED by low flying eagles.

Coool

Edit...

Seems they're on replay now....

Where they eaglets or the adults?

The Decorah Nest eagles moved out but there are some more nest cams.....

Bald Eagles

I don't see a camera, is there a new set of eggs?

Mark:

According to the website the Decorah nest is now empty. The Eagles have moved!

There are some other nest cams listed on that page....

From the "Duke Farms" cam...

Wow I thought those guys were there for years. Maybe the eaglet dying last year? But thanks for the other links.
