  • Dad was on the nest for 37 minutes. However, I used fast motion for some of the time that Mom and Dad were settled into their positions for keeping the nestlings covered which is noted in the video with timecodes.
    0:11 D28 pops his or her head out from under Mom and Mom checks either D26 or D27
    0:30 Dad flies down to the nest, perhaps in response to the nestlings chirping, and stands next to Mom
    1:49 D28 briefly pops up his or her head
    3:16 Dad moves to the front of the nest, perhaps thinking that it would be a better strategy to keep the nestlings' back ends covered while they have their heads under Mom
    4:52 Dad shakes the upper part of his body while not moving off the nestlings then Mom shakes her head
    5:07 Dad adjusts his position slightly to aerate the nest
    6:32 Dad has dozed off
    6:41 Mom stretches her wings, rouses, stretches her wings again then looks around outside the nest
    7:06 and 7:26 a muffled thunking sound can be heard
    9:47 Mom dozes off
    10:27 Mom shakes her head
    10:33 Dad wakes up
    11:12 Mom preens, shakes her head and preens some more
    11:24 Dad stands up
    11:33 Dad shakes his head then heads for the back of the nest
    12:17 Dad flies up to the skywalk

    Wonderful video! I've never seen both do that together. Such cooperation and bonding with this pair and their offspring.

      Bart Madness Check back a few weeks ago for an earlier video. Mom was incubating the eggs and there was a snow and ice storm. Dad came to the nest and covered her helping to keep her warm while she provided warmth to the eggs. Probably as a result of their cooperation that night we now have three healthy eaglets. They really do work well together to provide for each other and their offspring.

      Hopefully Troy Fairbanks hasn't gotten any of the Decorah Eagles. I just read that sad article by the AP about the Soix indians killing Eagles for profit in Iowa. Article is called Eagle Chop Shop.

      Gosh I had no idea! Just looked it up. Over 250 🦅 Looks like Troy Fairbanks has been indicted along with 14 others. They will appear in court to respond to charges this week. Let's hope that it goes to trial. Idk how they thought killing American Bald Eagles was okay.

      I follow the Decorah Family Eagles every day. I fell in love with these beautiful birds of prey. Congratulations for all the attention and care you are doing to the queens of heaven - Google translate
      You are very welcome but it is Raptor Resource Project that provides the live stream of the nest. :)

    this nest is much more relaxed then the north Decorah Eagles one with the 2 eaglets ... the parents seem just more caring here n i notice nearly every year they have 3 eaglets ...

    I think it was funny how long it took Dad to get in place. He kept looking at Mom as if to say what should I do!!

    I was so worried that the nest or the tree would be blown over with those high winds. I'm glad they are ok.

    Wet and sooo cold! I hope they don't get sick. :(

    • @prairiefirewind
      @prairiefirewind  7 років тому +9

      Mom and Dad have a 100% fledge rate for 25 eaglets. Being wet is probably not fun for the nestlings but Mom and Dad know how to keep them warm enough and healthy in rainy weather.

    • @kwgrid
      @kwgrid 7 років тому +2

      Thank you for the reassurance. I suppose I was imagining myself in that rain and cold. It was like mid-30's or so, right? brrrrr :)

      If you are asking why the parents are protecting the nestlings from the rain it is because the the down they currently have does a poor job of repelling water.
      Se stai chiedendo perché i genitori stanno proteggendo i nidri dalla pioggia, è perché il basso che hanno attualmente ha un lavoro povero di respingere l'acqua. - Google translate

    At times like this, I wish I could just press a button and have a roof slide out over the top of their nest. I know I know, impossible. Oh they look so sad and miserable.
