Yay, Titch did his (or her) first branch jump today. Who's a clever E6 then ?!
He (or she) is 71 days old now so will soon be fledging.

[FirstGreenIsGold]

e6 was busy this morning with exercise, wings flapping, jumping, etc. I've really enjoyed watching.

I hope that all goes well with the Hanover family too.

Ooohhh!
Can't be long now before E6 fledges the nest - I think I remember for baby Eaglets it was between 10 and 12 weeks.
After watching her/him for so long, I sure would love to see E6 take off - I think I will cry!

There's trouble at the nest. Ozzie hasn't been seen since yesterday and an injured eagle was found yesterday with a talon missing off it's left foot several miles away. Nobody seems to know yet if it is Ozzie or not. I do hope he's alright. Harriet is still around but there is a lack of food coming in with Ozzie missing.

E6 is 81 days old now so could fledge at any moment.

Ozzie had a talon missing if i remember rightly, Going for a read.

It is Ozzie who is hurt, He is in bird hospital and he has a fractured clavicle, so Harriet best get her butt in gear and bring home the bacon

[cornishmaid1961]

Awwww poor Ozzie. I hope Harriet manages to provide for E6 and help with the fledging stage while he is gone.


It is extremely likely that the bald eagle the ‪#‎CROWClinic‬ received from MyFWC yesterday is "Ozzie" from the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam. Upon recent examination it was confirmed that the bald eagle does have a fractured clavicle and will need a few weeks of rehabilitation at CROW. Pictured below is the bald eagle being examined prior to his radiograph. We will keep you posted and thanks for your support!

There was said to have been an interview earlier that said he was on the train track and someone dragged him clear just before a train came by. don't know how true it is though.

[cornishmaid1961]

Well he was found by the train tracks as there's a video of him just before he was rescued.
