Appearance

Thursday, July 09, 2009

It's been forever since I've been able to video Hidey in the nest. Hidey visited twice today....once in the morning for around 2 hours, and in the evening for about the same time. These videos are from the morning visit.

Hidey's Ins and Outs

After flying around for 3 days, I finally got to see Hidey take off from the nest on the morning of the 4th day after fledging! Hidey fledged on Saturday, May 30th, at exactly 11 weeks of age.

Belle returns to the nest with a nice fish.

Hidey returns to eat the fish.




Time to leave again!




I'm back again!

First Natural Bald Eagle Hatch at Two Harbors,
Catalina Island, CA.
This video is the first unassisted bald eagle to hatch at the Two Harbors Nest on Catalina Island, CA. The Institute for Wildlife Studies (IWS) has previously helped this eagle pair hatch their young by switching their eggs for fake eggs, incubating them at their facility on Catalina Island and then returning the hatched eaglets back to the nest. This year, IWS decided not to switch any eggs in any of the nests on Catalina Island. Look for the tiny grey head at 50 seconds into the video. The first eaglet hatched this morning, March 26th, 2009. K81 (the male) is tending to the chick and remaining unhatched egg.




This second video shows the arrival of the female, K82 at the nest with a freshly caught fish for the new hatchling. Watch as the male K81 leaves and the female has to figure out how to brood an eaglet and an egg, something she has never done before.

YAY! We finally get to see a
poop shoot!
It's no wonder, look at all the food Lib has provided for our only eaglet.
