Wingsday in Decorah :wuv:

From Raptor Resource Project:

"What's going on around our nests? At Decorah North, DN13 and DN14 are 26 and 24 days old, and growing by leaps and bounds! Remember our post on development in the third week? We've seen all of it - rapidly growing eaglets, pinfeathers and tracts of coverts pushing through natal down (squeeee!), expertly synchronized pooping, pellet casting, parent imitation, and - fanfare! - standing on their own two feet! Mr. North has to watch his toes when he's dropping food off!"

April 20th: DN13 casts a pellet- It is DN13's time to cast a pellet, and what a pellet - or three! - they are. DN13 nibbles on one towards the end, the only way the eaglet has to explore this curious thing it just expelled.




April 18th: A synchronized poop shoot 😁




"April 17th: DN14 is definitely a mini-me when it comes to noise and food - DN14 is hungry and not afraid to let everyone know it! At 2:30, DNF starts vocalizing as Mr. North flies into the nest with a fish delivery. Both eaglets scramble towards the food as Mr. North gets out of the way for the sake of his toes and talons!

Eaglets imprint on their parents and on one another, learning important behavior as they build on instinct to feed, preen, stay warm, cool down, and play with nesting material. While squeeing for food in instinctively eaglish, it is still a lot of fun to see mini-me DN14 screeing for food...just like Mom DNF does!"
