Brilliant, thank you Lady Hawk. I watched Tom on the feed this morning scrolling back and spotted Tom. He was so good guarding, standing over RTH5, watching the BJays, hopping around the branches and then the sweet gentle preening. So happy to have found your page with the video to be able to watch it again. Great editing.
Look how far Tom has come in such a short time! Despite his sadly unfortunate experience at first, he’s growing into his role so very well. Angel, with her experience, has been a very good teacher. Each day the little eyas is getting stronger and more active, it’s delightful to see. Thanks for sharing.💕🪶
This was a delightful & comforting video, thank you!.❤ It's delightful bcuz Tom shows his parental concern & attention to RTH5. Good job,Tom!!❤ It was comforting to me because Angel is a mother who shows intense love, protection, & dedication, as a Hawk, to her chick like Harriet did, as a bald eagle, to her E21 & E22!!❤❤Love both moms!! Miss you, RIP, Harriet!
Great to see Tom so Daddylike 😍 That cute little thing looks upwards to him, such a sweet pic. Now it seems it will be a wonderful little family. Thank You Lady Hawk
Yes it is kinda spooky having Tom's back to us. We know what happened before, but he seems to be handling this visit totally different. It is so great to see this. He does not seem stressed at all. This is a precious moment with Daddy !! Little Bit is probably thinking " who are you , you big brown thing ". Lol. Thanks LH !!
Yeah... Daddy Tom😍👍💖 You are Well done!😍 Tom really protects his precious RTH5 and the nest from the Blue Jays 💪 We are so glad😊😍 And lil fluffy Hawklet adorably looks at his Daddy😍 How cute!😍💕💞 Be blessed, dear Hawk family😍 Thank you, Lady Hawk😍💞❤
Well done, Tom! I knew you could do it! Learning to be a wonderful Dad! So adorable, the preening and watching over your chick. ❤️ Thank you, Lady Hawk!
*Are you my Daddy??* ❤ Tom is still tip-toeing around RTH5, but, it's quite an improvement. He looks a tad uncertain, but, his instincts tell him that it's okay to preen his baby. In fact, it's required and would be welcomed. Unlike eaglets who want to escape. Lol! 😹 As much progress as he's made, I'm still astounded that chick recognition is not totally built-in. What would two first time parents do? Tom knew enough to recognize Angel as one of his own species, but, he exercised no caution and took her for a mate. This is contrary to how other males would view her coloring as she would not be a good camouflage for the nest location and, thereby, endanger their offspring. Plus, leucistics can't exactly sneak up on prey. They are most often shunned and lead solitary lives. I also wonder if his food deliveries aren't just gifts for Angel and not really his understanding that he's feeding two. I wouldn't be shocked if he had a reasoning defect of some sort. Cute as he is, they aren't all perfect specimens. Jmo. Being an eagle fan, I find RTH5's little feet to be unbelievably cute. S/he looks up at Tom as if to say, "why don't you like me?". They're imprinting from day one. Those first encounters were tough. Hopefully, Tom's attentions will wipe those memories away. Hopefully, his behavior will kick into gear and change my opinion. I'm on team Tom for this to happen! 🎉 TYLH! 🥰 Hope everyone has a fabulous and blessed day. 🙏😻💖🤗💕
Think Tom wants to get one of those Jays the way he is tracking their motions.😮 He is showing good signs of protecting his little RTH5 and learning more and more of his role as a Dad.❤❤️❤️🙏🏻🤞🏻🙌🏻👍🏻
So happy when i saw Tom preen his little oneà👏 Am I completely at ease when he's alone with this precious baby? No, this auntie reserves trust but im hopeful and encouraged by this interaction. Keep waking up, Tom😊 Thank you so much, Ladyhawk- have a good week, my friend! SHDs❤
Very comforting to know Tom precious time with his Chick ❤.. Tom being a first time Papa now is doing so very well.. And Equally good to see The chick getting to know His/her Papa. Apart from the BJ's Harrasing ..This Beautiful Hawk Family is a True Pleasure. All the very Best wishes to them .. Thankyou so very much Lady Hawk wishing you A Lovely Week.. ❤❤❤
Lady Hawk ❤️🤗 you got some really sweet looks-Dad looking at his baby . What was he thinking ? OK your mine, I understand now ! How cool I’m Daddy! I will keep you safe from now on ! Probably for the best right now we let Mom feed you ! Don’t tell mom but I think we need to practice feeding 1st 🤷♂️before we show her 😂😂
🥰💕🌴🐥💕 Too precious for words!! Way to go Tom!! It melted my heart when RTH5 looked at Tom like he/she was admiring him. May God bless and protect this nest. 🙏💞🙏 Thank you so much for that wonderful positive video, Lady Hawk. Take care. Have a wonderful happy day. 🌺💙🙏🥰🤗💕❤️🐥💗💕🙏
We have Red Tails in our neighborhood....beautiful. One Hawk was sitting in my tree , watching my pug Jeter....he is 7....I said to the Hawk .." If you think you can pick up chubby , you are dead wrong." lol Jeter is a hefty 26 lbs...all muscles and that Hawk would get a hernia trying to lift him off the ground. He thought it over and then left. Glad to see Tom getting the idea about being a Dad.
@ladyhawk it's difficult for mere humans, because we assign human emotions to their lives. It's hard not to look away, it's hard not to get upset, but what an honor to peek inside this window. ❤️❤️❤️
His instincts seem to be kicking in with a good measure of "What do I do now!". He moved a good-sized stick out of the way onto the rails when he first landed and moved little twigs away from the chick. Good, Tom! He looked like he wanted to roost but just didn't know how to get there. Good guarding skills, Tom, well done!
GO TOM! ❤ Learning to parent is hard. I only have one and I raised her as an only child. New to this channel. Would love the backstory. Who was Angel's former mate? What happened? How did she come to choose/accept Tom?
I'm smiling from ear to ear. I hope they let go of what happened and cautiously move forward to what will be a trusting and beautiful upbringing of this furry bundle of joy in that nest. ❤ Tom is just a baby himself with so much to learn. I'm sure when Angel took him on as a mate, there was something she saw in him none of us know about yet until we begin to witness in days, months, or years to come. I can't wait to watch RTH5 as it grows. I also think Tom is going to be a great dad. We just have to pray Angel gets onboard the trust "Tom Train" lol looks like the little one is ok with him. I think 🤔 I'm on the optimistic train. Now go get food Tom. Don't blow it. 😉
Dear Lady Hawk ♥️ I think I got the full story from CC. I haven't had time to check out your channel to see what actually transpired - maybe I don't really need to - now that I know what happened. I know, its nature and I understand. I'm hoping this Sinus Infection that I now have won't keep me from seeing Connick next week. I'm just too exhausted to go this week. TYSVM - LH SED😴To Everyone 💖💖💖
Hi RoseMary I hope you feel better my friend and that you get some good rest for your move!! This is a good time to watch these videos on the nest as Tom is coming around and the chick is growing and doing well ♥
Big step in the right direction. Seems like Tom is connecting the dots that he is now a father to RTH5! Heartwarming to see him take watch and preen his baby! 🥰
Tom's big improvements! Thank God!!!😊 I've been cautious ⚠️ 😪 following this nest 🪹 🪺 😐 I'm aware of the wildlife, so there is no need to see "everything" 🫣

Still a bit cautious about Tom. He definitely needs to bring more food.

Look at little RTH5’s little feet walking towards Dad. Cute!

Thank you, Lady Hawk😍💞❤
I didn't know about red tail hawks until I frequented this UA-cam channel. They are so beautiful. The wee floof watches every move mom and dad make 🥰😩
So glad Tom is slowly coming around. So gorgeous when baby looks up at him 😍
Well done, Tom! I knew you could do it! Learning to be a wonderful Dad! So adorable, the preening and watching over your chick. ❤️ Thank you, Lady Hawk!
So happy to see Tom at the nest, preening, protecting, providing. He is getting to know fatherhood now. Thanks for the ts Ms.ladyhawk
Bless little Toms ❤ At one point he’s like staring at the chick intently……OMG…..it’s moving………….LOL😂
*Are you my Daddy??* ❤

If your PUG weighs 26 pounds, for the love of god, put that poor dog on a diet! Those dogs already can't breathe at a healthy weight!
Heartwarming! He gets it now! 🙏❤️🩹❤️
Yes I think so Buffalo - it is heartwarming to see the transformation in Tom in just the past 8 days!
@ladyhawk it's difficult for mere humans, because we assign human emotions to their lives. It's hard not to look away, it's hard not to get upset, but what an honor to peek inside this window. ❤️❤️❤️
His instincts seem to be kicking in with a good measure of "What do I do now!".

He looked like he wanted to roost but just didn't know how to get there. Good guarding skills, Tom, well done!
He did good. ❤Was a little worried he was tasting instead of preening! 😂
excellent yes I guess he knows what baby looks like now.
GO TOM! ❤ Learning to parent is hard. I only have one and I raised her as an only child. New to this channel. Would love the backstory. Who was Angel's former mate? What happened? How did she come to choose/accept Tom?

This is so beautiful and heartwarming to see.
So precious ❤😊
So sweet
looks like Tom still needs to learn to curl his talons when walking around his chick. little cutie!
It is wonderful seeing Tom taking care of and watching over this chick.😀😀
Good job Tom keep an eye on your chick while mom is gone!
Thank you Lady Hawk....your the best!!
Just beautiful. I can’t wait to see this little grow up❤❤

That’s encouraging! Getting there Tom 😊
Hello Lady Hawk 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Why why why..why this little angel is sooo cuteeee 😘😘😘😘
Big step in the right direction. Seems like Tom is connecting the dots that he is now a father to RTH5!
Heartwarming to see him take watch and preen his baby! 🥰
This is what I’ve been waiting and hoping for, made my eyes a little misty.❤️
Great news❤🙏🐦 thank you LH👑✨
I’m not sure Tom likes baby sitting but I am glad he was there when the Blue Jays showed up!
Still being cautious around hawklet. That's OK. Hopefully Tom will bring more food for his 👪.
The Jays were still quite vocal while Tom was at the nest. But I noticed that they did not dare to swoop/poke/nip at him, like they do with Angel.
Well I gotta admit at first I thought Tom was gonna be a dead beat dad, but he proved me wrong. Glad he did.
❤️
I’m glad Tom knows what to do now with this chick.
Dzień dobry 💞🌞
Does the hawklet have white talons like Angel ?
Es un padre malo.
It’s to bad he killed the first hatchling
Y’all are way more optimistic than I am about Tom.
Why? He's a bird. A young one at that.
Do you just assume they're born knowing what to do? LMAO.
Tom's big improvements! Thank God!!!😊
I've been cautious ⚠️ 😪 following this nest 🪹 🪺 😐 I'm aware of the wildlife, so there is no need to see "everything" 🫣
