The eaglets have been raised well and are branching at this moment...one has even fledged and gone tot he end tree where the adults hang out...it has been a earning experience watching these amazing creatures raise a family to fruition....elsewhere in the preserve Wood Storks Egrets of various kinds, kingfishers and the Crane family have been seen.  The Crane family lost the first nest and two eggs to something no one knows...but have re=nested in the previous nest from last two years.....on a windy March 17th the fledging eaglet gave it a go in the wind! .....

February has seen the Robins come in migration and deplete the Yaupon Hollies ...the Eaglets are growing rapidly and starting to feed themselves by late in the month although they still get lots of help from Mom and Dad .......the Cranes built a new nest in a different location this year but unfortunately something has happened and they are no longer at the nest as of March 2.....hopefully they will regroup and try again in a safer location ......
