Beautiful loon! Not so much action at this point, but I've been watching her for a five-minute relaxation break. The blog is informative, too.

Baby eagle Phoenix is growing up. In this clip, she grabs a fish the parent has brought and I think she's mantling after she grabs it. Mantling is spreading the wings, which some birds do when they catch prey.

Yeah, I don't think there will be much action until the eggs hatch - which should be any day now.

Unfortunately, the loon eggs in that nest did not make it this year. Larry retrieved the remaining egg last night to let the parents get on with their loon lives. The egg was about 10 days past hatch date, and it smelled like a rotten egg. Anyway, here is a beautiful photo of what we were hoping to see: http://www.northernimages.com/Wildli...480_xci53-L-LB.

Meanwhile, the young eagle is certainly getting bigger quickly and looks like most of the feathers have grown in.

Thanks for the beautiful loon image. So disappointing about the eggs, but I enjoyed watching the loon and reading the blog. And I'm keeping the site bookmarked for next year!
