First egg of 2025 !!
Last year none of the three eggs hatched. Hoping for better news.
No official confirmation yet, but sadly it does appear one of the eaglets passed away in the snowstorm. The nest is 145 feet high in the tree, and that's a brutal environment up there. Wind gusts at that altitude were reportedly 80 MPH, with sustained winds of 40 MPH. Hopefully the other chicks will survive until the weather improves. Poor little guy (girl?).
I think Tuesday will be the day! They were both sitting on the edge of the nest so long today and flexing those wings! Maybe it will be less windy on Tuesday - seemed like today would have been a rough first flightAbout to fledge any time.
