The female is sleeping, but I think I see 3 eggs. But don't quote me yet.
Not sure what time the eggs were here last year, Feburary feels very early, But Iowa has had a very mild winter with 40+ degree days.

If you haven't favorited the Eagle cam...now is a great time to do so. I just love watching the chicks hatch and grow.

1. One was laid 2/17, another on 2/20

I didn't know there was a third egg. I looked, but there's a danged bird hiding the egg pile.

I like the pic from Monday night, a bit of snow after the second egg was laid.

2. Eagles are one of the easiest to sex - the females are up to 1/3 over in size of the males.

They're still fucking huge birds! I've seen one a couple of times in the air but never at ground level or in pairs.

3. Yay!

I like peeking in on them.

4. still watching

Sunday Morning. Sun is out, and the female is on the eggs. Looks like the nest is swaying in the wind.

I saw what looks to be a large dog or coyote walking on the ground behind the nest, fledgelings beware!
