Short Description of Activity

Monitoring Eagle Nest near Island Acres Park; 2 juveniles observed; Mother eagle flying in to feed them, then ‘dad’ flying in to feed also.

Reflection/Evaluation

This was a good time of day to see the chicks and the adult behavior. The smaller juvenile doesn’t seem to get as much food. (travel time greater due to road construction)
