With the question of there being two eagles attacking the nest, this was written underneath the cam and answers that question:

There were two eagles? Yes! Here is a summary of the incident. Please be reminded, we have two cameras which give us two perspectives:
- On Monday, Aug 1st at 7:12 pm, a bald eagle approached the nest quickly coming from West,
followed by Steve, trying to chase it away
- Little B ducked and flew the coup, Eric pancaked and Spirit was taken (all seen on the main nest cam)
- while this happened, another eagle approached the nest coming from North, but flew by (view from side cam)
- Rachel showed up with a fish and started to feed Eric
The second eagle was confirmed by Dr. B. who saw this PIC, edited by
Homebird

Little B made it safely back to the nest. He/she is enjoying the freedom of flying now.

I'm not sure if this type info has been posted here, but this was written at the NEFL nest this morning regarding taste preferences for eagles:

babyhawk_AEF: Some info on taste buds -Birds do have a sense of taste, but it is not well refined. Depending on the species, birds may have fewer than 50 or up to roughly 500 taste buds, while humans have 9,000-10,000 taste buds. Birds can taste sweet, sour and bitter flavors, and they learn which of those tastes are the most suitable food sources. The sensitivity to different tastes varies by species, but most birds use other senses – sight and hearing most prominently – to locate the best foods.

babyhawk_AEF: Cont'd- Because of their unrefined tastes, when birds show a preference for certain foods, they're often relying on other factors. A bird may choose one food over another not because of taste, but because it is easier to acquire, there is less competition, their bills are better equipped for eating it or it has better nutrition for their dietary needs.
