We checked out both eagle nests we regularly visit today. At both I could not see the eaglets when I was taking the pictures, but after zooming in at home, we could make out the little dinosaurs. Click on pictures to enlarge.

The last time we visited this nest, we thought they were down to two eaglets. I was pleasantly surprised to discover last week that there are indeed triplets. Click on picture to enlarge.
After some pretty incredible storms, I was happy to see everyone here OK. Click on picture to enlarge.
When I visited the nest this morning, there was a juvenile eagle on a tree nearby. One of the parents was calling out and seemed very disturbed. I assumed he/she was calling for the other to come and run off the intruder. I didn’t see the eaglet and was a bit worried. I hoped she/he was keeping his/her head down in case of trouble (I’ve seen the young ones do this when the parents seem agitated). So, we went back later this afternoon. Not only was everything fine, we discovered there are two eaglets in the nest! Click on pictures to enlarge.
We still can’t see much of him/her, but we saw a little wing action today. Click on picture to enlarge.
