hopefully you can see it

Very sweet. Thank you, Bev.

Oh my...I just saw this after posting about northeast Florida. This is so sad. The video recorded shows the eaglet repeatedly getting up and down near nest edge before going over. I agree that it may have gotten stuck and tried to break loose. So very sad. RIP little one.

Since event, I read @ a northern eagle nest, the chicks there came out of the nestbowl earlier than normal one season ... they attributed it to warmer than normal temps. I remember reading in chat ... it was warmer than normal @ Berry that day. Also, from reading chat, both chicks were exploring about the nest that day. I don't know as I was not watching @ that time. I looked for videos that night in hopes someone recorded them out of the bowl on YT, FB, etc., but found nothing.

Swinwk, here are videos leading up to and recording the event. Like you, I cannot find a recording of how the eaglet got to the nest edge between 7 to 8 pm.

This video records up to one hour before the fall. You can see where the eaglets were located before dusk.

This is a recording from above the nest showing Mom's reaction to the fall. One eaglet is under her. The other eaglet is well outside of cam range at the nest's edge. I do not know how or why the eaglet got up there.

This is a capture of the fall from the approach cam. Don't watch if this bothers you. Very sad. Lots of static on this video, so turn off your sound. It does look like the eaglet was stuck in the rails and struggling to free itself, but hard to say for sure. Just heartbreaking.

So many of us love this nest and this pair. Watching Mom with her bad leg and her struggle to cope this year has made it difficult for me to watch this nest. So, this just adds to that. My sympathies to everyone here and those that follow this nest.

Now that I have taken a stop back I can be more objective.

I had seen most of all that happened at this nest. It matters not how youngster fell. It was just a fluke of nature. no one really knows exactly what happened. just theories so time to go on.

Ma berry had struggled for a bit this year as she came back with a wonkier leg but has worked her way through it.
She has been incredible. she has brought home prey, lots of it, she has built nest, brought in branches and hay, no problems feeding and caring for young.
mom has a wonky leg and I know when it is damp and cool, it stiffens. mine does also dad had a hurt talon for a week, but it was felt is was form pulling a branch. I knew once she did not have to brood as much her leg would feel better. fo r 4 day she was soul provider, bringing gin coot, squirrel, fish etc.


she has been seen by ground crew, hunting and perching and doing just what she should.

everyone has their own opinions and levels to where they can watch and no t watch.
I will not watch something die that can be helped but this, my friends, was not a fault of adults. It just happened.
even experts cannot say for sure what happened , baby just got too far out. too many theories out there. I will not even say for sure whether B11 or B10 but will not push the issue.
I am just thankful that we have one to watch. not the first time this has happened at a nest , and will not be last time.

my season is ready to begin soon, and I always have to remind myself , that i have no control over nature. Just watch , help when i can, and turn off computer when I cannot. and always be respectful of everyone here.

go Berry nest. onward and upward

I do not understand your comment Swink. I never posted anything on BB ( what is BB) do you mean branch buddies . there are other bevs there. at least 2 other ones. I I have never posted anything , objective.. Respectful)


I am saying in my above post that I wrote , to be respectful of everyone's opinions . just because we do not really know what happened and why.

I really got into the eagles this year! Fascinating to watch and different, I think, from the falcons. I am going to the Iroquois National refuge in another week to see eagles and more .......

This little babe is so sweet!

We want a report with pictures, Sally.

for sure!
