They also have a FB page for more discussion.

I love the way the parents roll their talons under their feet when they get ready to roost to protect the babies and the eggs. They are amazingly gentle for such fierce looking birds.

I seen one of them bring in a dead crow or blackbird to the nest on Sun, not sure if thats what is still lying there or not.

They are so careful when they are feeding the little ones, tearing off tiny bites for them to eat, Im sure that will change as the get bigger!!

When did they hatch? Whatever that is, it is too big to be one of her babies, imo.

It's food for the babies.
When not feeding the eaglets they sit on them to keep them warm and protected

I was able to catch both chicks and one egg. Few little bites to eat and then back to staying warm.

This is so great to be able to watch!
