I was working my way downslope when through the trees I saw Ranger Dad, glowing in the sunrise, heading for the nest. He had barely gotten to the nest when Ranger Mom flew in with a stick for the repairs needed before she lays her eggs later this month.

Ranger Cove Nest

Ranger mom showed up with food. I couldn’t decide just what the food was.

The two chicks got into a fight over who was going to eat and mom was stuck in-between them.

Extracting herself from the melee, Ranger Mom quickly went down east in the cove and glared at the world.

It didn’t take long for the chuck of food to be consumed and the chicks went to waiting for the next meal.

Ranger Nest: has Egg(s). Hooray!

I found both eagle parents sharing incubation duties this morning.
