This youngster had his eye on the fish and successfully caught his mid-morning snack.

TagJordan Lake: Ever Have One of the Days…
The fledgling eagle was enjoying a Sunday morning quiet moment (rare for a youngster to be quiet early in the day) when, well, when, oh why don’t I let you see what happened…
Jordan Lake: Bald Eagle Fledgling
During the photography class this morning, we got a chance to watch this eaglet calmly, almost floating, fly past us. Always keeping an eye of all things happening at the lake, this fledgling bald eagle came by to see what was happening in his territory. What a great subject for my students! I thanked the eaglet for helping with the instructions.

The morning started off with the moon setting in a beautiful Carolina blue sky.
Then the eagles came by and then the ospreys.
First was Lady Lake, panting hard in the heat and humidity.
Then a bright-eyed 2-year-old harassed the osprey nest and arrogantly floated past me.
Dad osprey was showing his fledglings how to fish.
I wonder what the fledglings thought of the tiny fish dad captured!
Jordan Lake: Busy Bald Eagle Youngsters
The first half of the slideshow is about one of the H&G Nest bald eagle fledglings making a successful fishing strike.
The 2nd half shows the 2 year-old bald eagle who decided to visit Doc this morning. She was about 50 feet from me.
This is the 2 year-old in the video posted earlier today.
My little iPhone tries hard when making videos, but it can’t bring to you the stills that my Canon camera does.
Jordan Lake Neighborhood: Bald Eagle Fledgling and Kingbird 07-03-2019
Being Small Doesn’t Matter
The fledgling bald eagle crossed into what the parent eastern kingbird considered to be his territory.
Dad kingbird emphatically escorted the eagle fledgling away from the nest tree and out across the cove.
