They are out a lot during the day. They even got left for quite awhile yesterday evening. I believe they fly at 2-3 months, so there is plenty of eaglet watching left!

Breakfast time! The eaglets are really getting feisty!

They're eating again. I watch them on/off through the day. It is addictive.

Until now, every time I checked them out, it was like watching grass grow. Nothing happening, but a mamma bird sitting on the baby birds, as no babies were in view.

Just now I saw the male and female eagles and the babies poking their heads up. A fish is off to the side. Almost feeding time I guess. Cool.

There is another Eagle Webcam located in Decorah, Iowa, that I posted last spring of their eaglets hatching and eventually fledging, and got no replies or responses when I posted it. Anyway, here is a video of their nest that was taken 2 days ago of the Mom adding a stick to the nest. You will notice that the weather is just a bit different there, compared to South Florida.

I expect their nesting to begin in March, so in case you are interested in following their progress, here is the link to the Decorah Eagles Webcam.

I've always seen something interesting. I've watched several webcams of various birds through Cornell's Ornithology site and its always amazing and interesting.

+1 has been watching the BIG Eagles nest and the TINY Hummingbird nest on a split screen; no fancy night camera it seems.

Feeding time. That aggressive one pecked the other one BIG TIME. Aggression seems to pay off since that one is getting the lion share of the food.
