Gizmo has fledged and may disperse soon, however, she is residing in the Gizmo Tree, which was named after her upon her arrival from her fledge. Daddy Shadow provided her with a fish today! What a wonderful baby daddy! This is the most special moment imaginable!

Gizmo has now fledged as well!

What a magnificent eagle world! Sunny has spread her wings! The eaglets will still soar around for a couple of weeks as the parents teach them how to hunt/fish.

Is that mother looking slightly downhearted? I would be as well. Empty Nest Syndrome is a recognized condition.
Eaglets typically leave the nest, or fledge, at about 10 to 12 weeks old.

For as much as I love seeing this, my heart breaks because we will soon be alone again, naturally.

The fish's sudden movement startled Sunny, causing him to pull back. Shadow immediately regained control, but the fish's tail continued to thrash about.

Remarkably, my eaglets have been served a buffet! Nine fish were delivered in a brief span of three hours.

On the video at 2:05, Shadow, who was in the process of cleaning the nest, accidentally picks up one of the chicks! OMG!

Today, Jackie and Shadow are both feeding the eaglets, which is preferable since eaglet one is establishing dominance by bumping its siblings, and this behavior can be challenging to witness.

The third chick/eaglet has made its debut! The moment was 3/8/2025 at 2:11 am. I’m thrilled that all three chicks are doing wonderfully. Now let’s remain hopeful that they continue to thrive!

My Eagles have emerged victorious! Not in these photographs, but I am referring to the team. Hopefully, this win is an auspicious sign that their eggs will hatch this year!

Our Jackie has withstood harsh weather, including gusts strong enough to knock her off balance. She will fare well. Hopefully, the tree will remain stable.
