Eaglets -- I think the #3 egg has hatched!!!
Edited on Tue Apr-05-11 05:04 PM by Autumn Colors
Just as dad was settling in now (after blocking the view of the feeding), it looked like there were some broken egg shells, but I couldn't see the eaglets....

2. Since this is a continuous video, we have to wait for the parent to stand up before we see chicks?
Real time; so we should keep this up and watch it from time to time throughout the day...

I'll "alt-tab" over every so often and watch!

Thanks!

3. Right now it's so windy I don't think the eagle will stand up
The way the wind is buffeting the eagles feathers I think the eaglets would get blow away.

6. What a beautiful bird. Are the other two babies okay?
Where is the nest, is in a zoo or in the wild?

7. I got really nervous watching one chick teeter on the edge of the nest.
Can you imagine raising three toddlers 100 feet above ground? You have to have the right stuff to be an eaglet parent!
