This forum is so great!! I'm amazed at how flat the eaglets have made this nest with all their wing flappin' and hoppin' that they do before they fledge. I stole a couple of BUNNIE's super snippies to show how the nest has changed in a few short months. Bye D's 18-20!! Fly High and Free!!
THIS IS WERE IT ALL BEGAN FOR MANY OF US .... SO HAPPY THAT MOM & DAD DECORAH HAVE PRODUCED 3 EAGLETS AND ALL HAVE FLEDGED FOR A FEW YEARS. THEY ARE GREAT EAGLE PARENTS AND HAVE IT ALL TOGETHER (OF COURSE, MOM'S THE BOSS) --- LOL.
Bob determined something was wrong when the eaglet ran instead of flew. I snippied the information from below the live feed. I hope M&D Decorah are ok with that.

It looks like there were two eaglets having difficulty. The latest from the RRP Facebook page:
Zitat12:15p ct UPDATE per RRP: Update from Decorah: After watching the eaglet he held in his mews last night, Bob determined it could fly. He thought it might have been weak from a lack of food, so he fed it last night and this morning prior to release at the trout hatchery. He is asking people to stay away and not crowd it. He and a few volunteers will be watching to see whether Mom and Dad come down to feed. If not, he will provide trout and quail as needed. However, it would be best if Mom and Dad came down, so please don't crowd the eaglet.
Another Decorah fledgling was found this morning with a broken wing. It is on its way to Kay at SOAR for assessment and treatment, if possible. We will keep everyone posted. A link to SOAR: http://www.soarraptors.org/
We don't have ID's for either eaglet at this point.

Recent posting on FB showing new pics of D4 and Decorah Dad with a foot injury. Picture taken by Allen G Johnson with this description by Mr. Johnson: "This is a crop of the picture to the left. It's not just blood, it seems to have a big cut or gash in it." dec dad injury.PNG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
