A TALE OF TWO EAGLES

We join our two Eagles as they are playing "Love Birds". Bet there is some smoochin' going on behind that wing! *


Weeks later, all that smoochin' has resulted in an egg! *

Make that 2 eggs. Our eagle family is growing. **




The proud parents stand guard and let us get a peek at the little ones-to-be.







When Mom and Dad get tried of sitting, they let the sun keep the kids warm and toasty.


*


The nest seems to be a bit crowded these days. *


Time passes slowly for our parents-to-be.









The weather is holding out. Not to cold and lots of warm sun.



Changing of the guard. *




Would you look at this, SNOW! And just yesterday it was so nice.


All the love and care that our proud parents put in has paid off. The first Eaglet makes an entrance. *










Now the work really begins. Feeding time. *





Looks like more fish is needed. And there's still only one mouth to feed.








Looks like a very proud parent here!







Feeding is becoming to seem like all Mom and Dad do now.







And the pieces need to be very small.







What's that I hear??





What have we here?





Why I do believe that Eaglet #2 has just made an appearance.







Yes, #2 is here!!!! *








After some drying off and a bit of a nap (breaking out is hard work you know!)....*







#1 and #2 are ready to be feed, again.*
