Do the parents still come back? Do they show up one afternoon with a trout to find their children gone forever?

| One of them is still there, don't think it ever left. I think it must be a bit slow or something. My guess is that it is the one that was always lying around. |

The one that fledged on Sunday came back to the nest today when she saw the parent bring a fish to the nest. Looks like she's spending the night in the nest. |

Eaglet #4 hatched this week - #5's on the way at any moment now.
Looks like mama's eating duck head for dinner tonight. I can't quite make out what the other parts are in the nest. Fish heads? |

WaPo: Bald eagle egg starts to hatch at National Arboretum in Northeast D.C. A second egg is expected to follow any day now for the eagle pair known as Mr. P and Lotus.
You can spy on them here: https://naeaglecam.org/ Enjoy! |

| I am worried that the new chick is dead. Haven’t seen it move all morning. |

According to the site: DC8 didn’t survive the first 24 hours. Oftentimes the first clutch of a newly mated pair is not viable. We will continue to watch for a pip on the second egg. Remember this is a wild nest. Graphic content can occur as nature takes its own course. Viewer discretion is advised. 😢 |

Sad. I hope that when the remaining egg hatches, the baby is strong |

Here is another semi-local camera (this one without sound).
The birds have been mating the last few weeks, and should lay eggs next month. https://www.vims.edu/bayinfo/ospreycam/index.php |

The one with the speckled chest is the female. |

| Seems like the eagle is really prepping the nest for the new little egg to hatch! |
