Seems that there has been a raccoon that is persistent to get to the eggs the past few nights!! Being chased away by both eagles 🦅

Last year I was concerned about the survival of the smaller chick who got picked on a lot by his big brother. Now, with three eaglets I don't know if I can stand the tension. ::paranoid::

Saw the raccoon retreat the other night. Hope he is smart enough to give up the effort. I am also watching a nest in CA on YouTube.

It just seems to me that the mom doesn't do a very good job of distributing the food. It looks like one eaglet is getting 90% of the food. Yet they are all growing.

The three Pennsylvania eaglets have grown pretty quickly. Unfortunately the California nest I was watching ended with the eggs be destroyed by ravens.

Watched some thing pretty KOOL yesterday.. The oldest/biggest Eaglet stepped aside during feeding and let the two smaller Eaglets eat.. When they seemed like they had enough then he/she continued feeding.. Pretty KOOL !! They are growing fast!!

Indeed they are growing fast. Wish I had seen what you saw John. I wouldn't expect that to be a common behavior. But perhaps eagles are more generous than I imagine. ::uc::
