Sherri's photo - June 16th
Eaglets are spending more time standing on their toes
like adults, instead on their feet, like chicks
Another picture on the Kent page shows the mother
eating in front of the eaglets - perhaps to encourage
this well-fed pair to start learning to grab food
the way they'll need to do as juvies.

eaglet eating on its own -
parent fed a few bites, then left;
the little one figured out what to do next!

Eagle Lover from NYC - Starr's photo - June 15
this fish arrived still flapping a bit;
after watching for a while to see if
someone would do something about
that, Skye took matters into his
own hands (err - beak) and
took it to his feeding spot and
began to feed himself.
It's been observed that the
parents often bring food to the nest
but don't feed Skye, encouraging
him to grab it from them and
feed himself.

A-63 is spending a lot of time
branching - and when one of the
parents tried to sit on "his" branch
A-63 chased him off!
And check out this sequence by
EagleLoverFL on the IWS forum -
A-63 Grabs Dinner
A-63 may be an only child
but his parents seem to be
teaching him well!
