Mama is very sad right now. The mother of the three eaglets that she has been watching on the webcam was killed today.

Professionals are watching the nest to determine what to do. As of 5:03 pm est, the male has not returned to the nest to feed the eaglets. We hope he returns soon. They really need him.
UPDATE: The male has returned to the nest with food and he is feeding his young at 6:45 pm eastern time.

It's so sad. The male has not returned to feed the eaglets yet. He must know she's gone, but I'm surprised he has not returned to feed the babies. He's been a good provider.
ReplyDeleteOh no! We were so sad to read this. Dad's been following the Eagle Cam in Decorah and it's been really exciting to see! I hope the father eagle can take care of the chicks for another month so they'll be alright!
