2 for 4 – 4 now

With the recent cool weather, occasional rain, and strong winds we have not seen much of the eyases, or chicks, the past 36 hours. While the female was feeding the fluffballs this a.m., it was apparent there are only two chicks and, still, two eggs. It is quite possible that the two remaining eggs may be infertile and may not hatch. We should know for certain the fate of these remaining eggs over the next couple days or so.
Thank you, Joel. Been wondering all wkend if/when those 2 eggs would hatch, especially when one was left out when M/D sat back on the brood & 1 egg.
If anyone is interested in the rescued baby bald eagle in Minnesota Bound, it is covered in their blog (click on ‘Eagle Cam’ for the live cam to see ‘Hey Buddy’ Harmon alive & calling for M&D): http://www.mnbound.com/bald-eagle-blog/
Is that egg shell I see by her now? Been away from computer all day. Maybe another hatched?
I saw her feeding just now, still only 2 babies.
