The ospreys have returned!
This is a female and her catch; her mate was fishing too.
It is a long migration flight for them – North Carolina to South America twice a year.
difference
The difference of a year in age can make a striking change in the color patterns of a bald eagle.
The bird up top is a 3 year old and the lower bird is a 4 year old.
alert chicks
Kate has just flown back from chasing off the intruder.
Both chicks are alert and trying to spot the danger.
One watching mom and one looking out over the cove.
suspension?
That’s Kate making a quick fly-over of the nest to make sure the chicks are ok. She has just chased an immature eagle away.
To see the latest video on the 2 chicks please go to my YouTube site at http://youtu.be/znso_0LLhd4

Eagles, being eagles, especially a young exuberant two year old bald eagle,
often defy gravity: yes, the juvie is upside down.
He was flying along, started a series of dives and rolls, and I caught his joy in his maneuvers.
