All three eaglets continue to get fed throughout the day and boy are they growing. I know a number of people posting express concern about the smallest eaglet, but keep in mind that he is about 5 days or so younger than the biggest of the three. The small one is growing, but being almost a week behind is going to keep him smaller than the others for a while. Both Liberty and Justice are doing a great job of bringing food to the nest multiple times every day.
We have about a 40% chance of rain each day for the next four days with daytime highs in the 60's and 70's.
I watched yesterday as the dad was on the nest. He seems to give them more freedom as far as roaming around, they were all over the place. Where as mom tends to keep them together more. It's hard to believe how much larger the bigger one is compared to to the youngest. Saturday afternoon the baby was the first awake & did get quite a bit to eat before the other two woke up. That was good too see.
