Jordan Lake Bald Eagle Nest report: First Nest

The chick is very, very interested in the food that dad Petruchio is studying and thinking about feeding to the chick

Much to the annoyance of the chick, Dad takes notice of something … other than the food the chick wants and is pointedly showing Dad where his attention should be.

Dad explains to the chick that watching for possible dangers comes first, yes, even before food.

The chick takes to pouting and Dad goes back to observing.
