I love you forever, Dad. You brought so much joy to my life; thank you for all you did to protect your young and Mom. Well done, Dad. God be with you always.
I still bawl when I come and see this wonderful tribute. Dad Decorah will always have a special place in my heart. An epitome of what a Father should be like, both human and animal. Love ya, Dad Decorah...❤😔😢❤
Yeah, that time, about a minute twenty in, when it was really cold and snowing...I saw it when it happened. He came and shared nest duty with Mom. Was really there for her and the babies. They shared a moment...almost like he knew. Touched my heart.
This tribute is so far beyond what words can say. It is over 3 months since the first viewing and I still experience the same, raw feelings. My tears are flowing just as easily today as yesterday. Thank you Lizzy for this memorable tribute to Dad. Soar high, Dad Decorah, we miss you.
How very beautiful and sad at the same time. I hope Mom will accept another, as Harriet did after losing her Ozzie. So many traits of him were in this year's young. I believe Dad Decorah will watch over this nest forever. Mom Decorah was the most courageous and dedicated mother ever. I hope her heart has had time to heal.
I am so heart broken. A wonderful and touching moment..THANK YOU for this tribuite. Watched this Beautiful loving pair of Eagles since 2006. Will send Eagle Prayers for Mom Decorah!
Beautiful & heartbreaking. He was such a good mate and daddy. Nature is so awesome, but tragic events happen in nature, too. We’ll all remember him. Thank you!
I happened on this tonight, having watched it previously right after it was first posted. Tears came quickly again as I remembered back all the good years that we were able to watch Dad Decorah. I miss him and wish he could have been with Mom to raise the three amigos. She did an awesome job and he would have been so proud of her, as were we all. Someday we'll understand what happened. Thank you for doing this, Lizzy!
Litzy, thanks for posting such a beautiful tribute to Dad Decorah. In time "we will be alright". Tears are falling from the dark gray skies into my heart and eyes.
i never followed this nest, but even still upon learning about what happened to dad and now this tribute video, this has brought me to tears. i hope he is safe. at worst, i hope he is flying in that huge, wonderous blue beyond the stars and catching all the fish he wants, if you follow me.

Beautiful. But makes me so sad....
To Mama D:
As we wrap our heads around
Nature’s unending mystery,
A new page is written,
In Decorah Eagle history
We’ve witnessed the hatch
Of three baby chicks
In a nest constructed of leaves, grass, and sticks.
Kept safe by their parents
From dawn until dusk
With three tiny heads resting
On a bed of cornhusks.
A few weeks passed
A late winter snow.
Daddy D is missing.
Where did he go?
Mom cries out
Looking in every direction.
To find her mate
Of undying affection.
Our fears and concerns
Have been shared and spoken
Between mom and babes
The bond is unbroken.
Overwhelmed, mom knows
Life must go on.
She hunts and gathers
Beginning at dawn
Time goes by
Down turns to feathers
Against all odds
Mom keeps babes together
We’ve each been concerned
To the point of tears
One thing remains certain
Mama D. is assuredly
Mom-of-the-year!
Beautiful thank you
Wow. Tears. I just heard & saw this tribute. So sad. How many years were they a mating pair? ♡♡
I think since 2007
What happened ?
What happened to him???

Is there something formal that a Tribute is needed. I mean did an Admin or founder says it's ok to say Dad is gone?
