The lone eaglet of this year’s nesting season fledged at the end of June, and it frequently returned to the nest. On this day a couple of weeks after it fledged it took advantage of the south wind and made a few jumps back and forth to the short branch. This short branch was a long branch last year, and we’re slowly watching this once live tree (about 5 to 6 years ago) slowly wind down. We hope this eagle pair gets a year or two more of this nest; it’s been active 9 to 10 years.
