DN17 and DN18 turned three and two days old today! The eaglets aren't ready wander the nest just yet, but it was fun to see them popping their little periscopes up from beneath DNF and Mr. North's feathery coverlets.
Did the dynamic duo get enough to eat? Our camera operators recorded seventeen feedings from DNF and five from Mr. North. DN17 ate 14 times and DN18 ate 12. I'm surprised they could left their heads for more food by the end of the day! Our Facebook video shows a relatively peaceful feeding, but the rockem' sockem kids were brawling this morning:    • Decorah North Nest 3-27-24 Mr feeds t...  . Multiple meals and beak-a-thons help the eaglets gain weight and build muscle and coordination - a big part of development in their first week! https://www.raptorresource.org/2024/0...
