Eaglepedia Revisited April 30, 2008 Food for the Young - Part II Adults typically deliver food 2-8 times per day, and the early morning period accounts for proportionately more food deliveries. Food delivery rates also typically decrease as eaglets mature and or eaglet numbers decline with normal attrition. Therefore, deliveries may not be observed during some monitoring periods for older broods. Nestlings may use food that accumulates at the nest for more than one day, unless fresh food is provided. Both adults and chicks are capable of storing food in their crop, then digesting the food over time.

Penny - The tulips were just fresh cut ones. I never heard of Parrot Tulips, they are so different and they do come in other gorgeous colours. Beautiful peacock photos, hope he finds a mate. |

Extremely Rare Bald Eagle 4-chick Brood Documented on James River Image - Dr. Bryan Watts from April 18 2011 aerial survey From CCB Blog.... A perfect storm of conditions must come together in order for a Bald Eagle pair to raise four chicks to independence. The female must produce a four-egg clutch, the equivalent of 10% of her body mass, in a narrow time window. If the time span of laying is too long, the level of asynchrony will be too great for the forth chick to overcome. The female must brood and feed the older siblings for several days while maintaining the viability of the forth egg until hatching. Shortly after the last egg hatches, ambient conditions must allow for the female to leave the brood frequently enough to assist the male with foraging and provisioning. Lastly, foraging conditions must allow for high per capita provisioning rates to reduce the strength of a dominance hierarchy and the likelihood of brood reduction. Read More |
