Shiloh, Tennessee

Amazing as it might seem, this 51/2 week old eagle stretched out the wings in a brisk wind to try them out...

That's Mom in the upper right hand corner.

I've watched this before, and I agree its amazing. Before they actually fledge, they will practice flying to branches in their nest tree. Wonderful to watch~ You are doing a great job documenting this miracle, Michael. Hope you can catch their first flight!

Yes a wonderful chronicle of the development of the young birds Michael. lt looks as though it's bracing itself against a branch.

Thanks, Cindy. Yes it is. They know what to do and do it... Sometimes I wish we were like that. Life would be simpler..
