The next morning D27 hopped around to a few branches and flew back to the nest. She appears to not be leaving ever. Maybe she figures as long as she stays mom or dad will bring her food and she will always be taken care of. It does not work that way come time this Fall to start working on the nest for next Spring, she will be chased off. In her own eagle time she will Fledge but until then we can watch her antics and squueeee for food.
She did fledge later this afternoon. Guess she decided her siblings were having too much fun and mom/dad told her to get packing. So now the empty nest syndrome sets in until next February when we have a new batch of eggs.
Fly high and soar the thermals 26, 27, and 28. May you live a long eagle life.
