It looked to me as if the one at the top in these two pictures was practicing perching on the stick in the nest - seemed to keep moving around and grasping it in different ways. They're likely to be fledging before too long, so it is important to learn how to perch on a branch!

's photo - March 26, 2008

Loner was not seen at all on March 25 (we started watching around 9 am, and someone was watching fairly constantly until it was too dark to see). Both parents spent time in the nest, separately and together, and brought food to the nest. We are assuming Loner fledged March 25, at 11 weeks old.
He was back in the nest enjoying his breakfast at 8:30 am March 26.

JudyB: "This picture is when s/he appeared back in the nest after having been out of sight for a half hour or so (branching?)"
SharonFeeney (later in the day) : "I saw it come down once before dark, but it went right back up there. It's pitch dark here now, and that eaglet was UP and off the nest right up until I couldn't see anything."

The other eaglet was not seen at all on May 27; we did determine that both had been seen early on the 26th, which is after the worst storms passed through the area, making it more likely that the fledge was intentional. Alan Jenkins from the Sutton Avian Research Center also said he thought it was a fledge - this nest is a bit behind the average for the area.
