flaz Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 The history of Harriet and M is a selatios. Our eagles were Ozzie and Harriet. M showed up and started courting Harriet 7 years ago, after the state stopped giving the birds names. They now have Letters and numbers. Anyway, M showed up and kicked Ozzies ass 2 years in a row. He wound up with the cougar (bird) and Ozzie is stuffed on a shelf somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom or dad must have brought a tainted rodent back to the nest. Rats are a big problem down here. Nearly every house has at least one poison box outside. Eagles are opportunity feeders, carrion being a large part of their diet. I hope this little one makes it, Harriet is getting up there in age.

Nanker Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Duke Estate Eagle Cam They've got two again this year. They've been doing this broadcast for over a decade. Eagles are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Last year I was driving to a house being built right on the shore of Lake Ontario and there was a small group of trees along the road before the house. As I started driving up the road I noticed something big in the tree and when I got closer I found out it was a bald Eagle nest with them inside. I talked with the builder and owner of the house and the said they see them occasionally leave the nest and swoop down towards the lake to try and grab fish. It was pretty cool to see them every time I had to go there. I don't know if they are back this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cripple Creek Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 What's the incubation period for an eaglet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 9 hours ago, Cripple Creek said: What's the incubation period for an eaglet? Depends on eagle type. For bald eagles incubation takes 35 days. Or is this another question which no answer is expected? As a child I read 2 sets of encyclopedias by age 8 (World Book was one, Encyclopædia Britannica) and it amazed teachers when I would be giving corrections to them. I'd point out differences between sets I had and sets in library and find other references to show which was correct. Sometimes I'd get comment "you need to send that in to publisher" and one teacher would help me write a letter. Encyclopædia Britannica sent me a thank you letter and told me correction would be in next edition. Unfortunately the internet killed Encyclopædia Britannica and they no longer publish printed versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
