Dear Friends,
We are deeply saddened to announce that Decorah North eaglet DN10 who hatched yesterday (4-1) at 6:32pm CT has perished. We have no idea what the cause may have been, nor do we want to speculate.
We have been trying to keep the camera focused tight on the egg cup looking for all activity, and like you, hoping to see 2 heads pop up, interact with each other, and reach for their food bites. The deep cup, and the extremely high berm that Mr North and DNF constructed prevented us from seeing much. We were watching and waiting, and about 3:51pm CT today, we knew that DN10 was gone as Mr. North removed the nestling from the cup and set the eaglet off to the side of the nest as seen on our live camera feed.
While we are mourning this loss for the North family, the sadness is tempered seeing how healthy, strong, vibrant, active, and vocal DN9 is, and hope the remainder of the season is a blessed one for them raising just one eaglet.
Pirmais mazulis jau ir klāt!!!!!TasPatsFans wrote: ↑04 Apr 2019 20:08 04.04.

For those who think that because DM2 hasn't yet fed D32, he is inexperienced, please refer to yesterday's activity. Mom brought fish #1 to the nest and fed D32. Shortly after DM2 took over nest duties, there was an intruder in the area. After flying off to protect the nest, she returned, and DM2 went on patrol duties for almost the entire day. She then went on and did the next two feedings, as DM2 couldn't even if he wanted to. He was busy with his own parenting responsibilities. DM2 arrived to give Mom a short break in the evening, and Mom returned with another fish (even though fish #1 was still there), and fed D32 again. There was no reason or need for DM2 to feed D32. And again this morning, just because he didn't feed D32 before Mom did, doesn't mean he's unfit. He did appear to practice with pulling small bits from the fish. We don't know his history. Yet he did a great job with the eggs, and didn't need any lessons. Perhaps he had a previous mate that did all of the feedings while the eaglets were this young. Time will tell. And just because people think something needs to be done differently, doesn't mean eagles think that way.
