BABIES!!! The Eagle Cam was moved!

OK... so this made me smile... don't know if any of you have gone back... but they moved the cam to a different nest... and this one has babies... little gray balls of fluff... Not sure if it's mama or papa there with them now... but man, this does my heart good...

Oh just wait. There is Biglet and Lil-let. Biglet is a total bully and hog. You will go _crazy_ rooting for Lil to get food. But she eventually does...Yesterday he had her on her back and was biting her. the forum was going crazy!!!

The sound makes my dog go nuts. I wonder what he'll do when the live grizzly bear cam gets up and running!

The first couple of days, "Biglet" was really bad. He pecked the little one really hard and tried to push it out of the nest. The poor little one would hide its head. "Little bird" seems to be holding its own much better now.

Unfortunately eagle parents do not treat their babies like we do, and often one chick grows bigger and faster and gets fed the most. That's just a part of nature and unfortunately the little one often perishes. So, caligurl, don't watch if it's gonna have you in tears!
