YUP they need to learn the hard way I used to posted back and forth with baypacker and when he/she said about their nest I didn't realise that they meant going to the nest like that I thought they were a smart eagle watcher, maybe I should go and post about how irresponsable they are heck I've never been thrown off a chat like that before :teehee:

Booneshoft Dayton Ohio Jim & Cindy have 3 Eaglets :egg5:

Update April 19, 2012 - Could there be three? Could there be three eaglets in the nest!? Yesterday two experienced and respected eaglewatchers reported seeing three fuzzy, gray heads bobbling in the nest. The first report came early in the morning and the second came in the afternoon. I am the “I’ll believe it when I see it” sort of person and I just haven’t seen three heads yet. Eaglets have large wings for their little bodies to carry so the often drag them awkwardly behind them and those wings tend to flail and flop around. Their wings may be mistaken for an additional bird at times. But the reports came from very reliable people and I want to believe them but it is almost too good to be true.

If there are three and if the observation of a dead eaglet being removed from the nest, as I reported in my last update, is also true then Jim and Cindy successfully hatched out four eaglets! This is rare indeed. The feeding has slowed down some which supports the four to three (or three to two) scenario. Again only time will tell. Either way, 70-92 days after hatching the then adult size eaglets will fledge which is going to make the entire month of June very interesting. JBW/EEW

Update April 20, 2012 - One, two, three! To quote the late Davy Jones, “I’m a believer!” I was able to clearly see all three eaglet heads at the same time! This is extremely good news as it means that there is a great likelihood that at least two will survive their first year.

The new camera replacement for Camera 2 is really sending out some good images, especially in the afternoon when the sun is farther west. The eaglets are clearly visible and as they grow and explore their surroundings, this will be the camera to watch. JBW/EEW

There is a picture gallery also and there are some awesome pictures to view

Boy this is a noisy little one still not all the way out but getting there

PattiO · **Posted:** Sat Apr 28, 2012 11:11 am

Kitten ..... sorry I've been MIA this week. I'm gettin behind again!

I've been watching Wolf River closely the last 2 days ... chick is stuck to the shell. This morning it's just about free but still has a ring of shell stuck around it's head. Not your typical hatching. I'm hoping Mom can get it off.

I've a birthday party this afternoon for my aunt and uncle - both turning 70! So I'll be out for awhile. If you're around ... keep an eye on them please!!

Mom got tired of waiting for the chick to get the shell off actually it was on its wing and not its head so she did it for him :egg11:

this isn't the best but you can see the little bobble
