SWFL Eagles ~ Intruder Is Back! Smart E22 MANTLES & PROTECTS Fish! Intruder Kicks Both E's 😲 2.18.23

M15 flies into the nest with a fish and the female intruder with the injured talon follows him back to the nest! She actually lands on the nest and M15 is vocalizing loudly his warnings. She is not deterred at all and remains on the left hand side of the nest with E21 at the twelve o'clock position and E22 at the 6 o'clock position and M15 to the right. M15 offers the fish tail to E21 and as soon as the intruder saw that she kicks E21 with her foot trying to move E21 out of her way so she can get the fish. Then she kicks E22 to try and get closer to the fish that M15 was standing on. M15 is focused on feeding the E's as fast as he can with the intruder on the nest which is a smart thing to do.
M15 starts to offer bites to E22 who does the snatch and grab as the intruder just watched. E22 will grab a piece of fish and quickly turns around and mantles that piece so that the intruder would not take it!! E22 is a very brave, smart and scrapping young eaglet!! M15 continues to offer bites of fish to E22 and the Intruder will take off on her own. M15 then finishes the feeding and heads to the attic. What a great job M15 did with this intrusion on his nest once again. He assessed the situation well and must have thought she was not an immediate threat so he did not have to chase her off. E22 did a very impressive mantle for being in the presence of an intruder too! Thank you for watching!

There has been a lot of questions regarding the status of her injured talon and hunting/fishing ability that I would like to address. This is a healthy and good sized female eagle who sustained some type of injury to her right talon recently. This injury is healing and it has not impacted her ability to hunt or fish successfully for herself. There were concerns she was starving and that was why she was following M15 to the nest and trying to steal his food. The female intruder caught a good size fish today and flew with it to the upper branch in the nest tree and then flew off with it to eat. The reason she is following M15 back to the nest is all about the food. Eagles are opportunistic hunters and it is sometimes easier to try and steal food than to catch it themselves. It is not that she was so injured that could not hunt for herself, she saw an opportunity to try and take food from a single male who was constantly bringing in food for his eaglets. As for her injury, if the nail bed is not seriously injured, even if the talon falls off it should grow back. Eagles have been able to live long lives with missing talons. M15 is not interested in her as a potential mate and his sole focus is in providing and protecting his eaglets. He tolerates her presence at times when he does not perceive a threat and then at other times, he simply chases her off. Hopefully M15 will be able to continue to balance all these extraordinary responsibilities that have befallen him since Harriet went missing. He certainly has done an outstanding job so far! ♥

I just wanted to stand up and cheer for M15 and the eaglets! I noticed that at one point he started eating the fish himself so that she wouldn't target the eaglets, and then he felt confident enough to start feeding them. E22 showcased his newly emerging cunning and bravery... yes indeed, that is one scrappy and special lil guy! E21 seems to be recognizing his younger sibling's growing confidence. (I secretly think they'll become great friends one day soon ;) And M15 held the fort beautifully.... he wasn't going to buckle to this intruder.... he kept his focus on the very important task at hand. His confidence in the face of this very weird situation is growing by the day, and he's handling everything beautifully! ❤

M15 was definitely telling her off! After watching this three times, I actually think she was trying to get the Eaglets to move to see if they had any food under them! It also looked like she considered trying to take that food from M15 for a few seconds. She was definitely asking for a bite! Didn't work. M knows exactly what his priorities are!

She is getting much bolder. I fear for the E's as she gets angrier every time she jumps in the nest. Clearly, she no longer fears or respects M as she stands in the nest and he only screams at her. She is demanding food and hurting the E's right in front of him. She will eventually try to get rid of the "competition". It is nature and it can be cruel but in this case, I wish something could be done to help this small family of 3 that is trying so hard to survive.

Yes indeed, M15 is a hero to his eaglets and is doing an outstanding job feeding and protecting them! I too thought she might be starving and couldn't hunt for herself but changed my mind today when I saw her with the fish she had caught. It's so upsetting watching those poor little ones getting kicked around. So proud of E22, so brave mantling it's fish next to that big intruder. I was so afraid the intruder would try and snatch the fish away and hurt E22. These little ones are certainly having to learn some hard lessons quickly, maybe and hopefully to their advantage. Mama wherever you're at I know you're so proud of your special little family! Prayers for M15, E21, E22 and precious Harriet. Thank you Lady Hawk for the updates they are greatly appreciated. 💜🙏

I was very upset at first watching all this play out. I am beginning to realize just how wise M15 is. I wondered why he did not attack the intruder but after watching this, I realize he probably thought it was safer for the eaglets if he just kept an eye on her, and went about his business of feeding them. He amazes me. Again, thank you.

It’s hard not to put a human spin on what we see in the nest, but all in all, the pushy visitor hasn’t been overly aggressive in her attempts to grab a meal from M15’s table. Even when she foots the eaglets, it’s more dominant than anything else but they don’t yield to it. If she were starving, I believe we’d see a much different display. That said, she is still a danger to the eaglets, her adult size and strength could push them off the nest. I sure wish I spoke Eagle though because she and M15 have some serious conversations. M15 is picking his battles and so far his judgment of the situation has not led to a violent encounter. I pray that continues and that M15 can get these precious eaglets to fledge. Each of the incursions into the nest and the way our heroic M15 is handling them are great life lessons for the eaglets. Harriet would be very proud of her eaglets.💔

I'm glad the E's are gobbling food quickly as Dad feeds them as she is after the food. I'm also glad M15 is feeding the E's fast and then cleaning up the meal himself as much as possible. I was impressed with E22 mantleing to protect the bite it got. I did look long at the intruders' injury. My thought was that it might be healed enough for her to hunt. I am glad she is able and will hunt. She is obviously trying to take the easy way and steal food. In the past, I've seen videos showing huge eagle fights over stealing food at salmon runs. Of course, those are not a nesting situation. Lady Hawk, your explanation has really made the behavior we are seeing much clearer. I'm learning a lot more. Where I live the locations where I see Bald Eagles, they are sitting in trees along the Columbia River watching for fish in the river. It is as I drive home. There is no space to pull over, and just watch along that high traffic road.

Did you read Lady Hawks description above?. The intruder is not starving, and was observed today hunting and caught her OWN fish. Eagles are opportunistic hunters. She sees an easy meal or free food from a one parent nest and is taking advantage knowing M is bringing fish and prey all day to feed tye eaglets and easy meals. She is a threat if there was a nothrr fight in the nest don't you think M15 or the babies can be seriously injured or accidently fallen out of the nest. What if M15 is seriously injured by a much bigger feamale???

The eaglets depend on him being uninjured to care for them. If M15 gets injured severely and is unable to hunt, it's a death sentence for the offspring. But the adult intruder would be forced to find a different family to harass and bully. The survival instinct of the intruder will make her exploit every opportunity to live. Remember, even eaglets are known to kill their sibling/competition because it is natural for the strong to survive. Being cunning and fast, like e22, is a survival skill. Knowing when and where to battle is the survival skill M15 is practicing now. I think timing is something he can't afford to get wrong to survive.

M and his "house guest" had a good day. They disappeared from about 8 to 2. I think he's giving her some fishing lessons because when M came in the nest with a fish around 3, she also had a fish for herself on that scraggly skinny bare dead tree just west of the nest tree near the sidewalk. Then almost an hour later a big test came. M kept her included for a first family dinner. Yikes! Well other than her habitual single shove to the kids' bums it went well. M spoke in modest tones to her and she stayed in her seat at the "table." She excused herself after 8 minutes. I wonder how young she is? Ever been a mama yet? Wonder if she was possibly orphaned? Just been on her own for a long time? Or not? Day ended with one more big fish from dad to 22 a little later. Good going M...you da man! "Trust the eagles"🦅💓🙏

Excellent assessment, thank you. 😊 I feel sorry for her, being alone and injured. I'm so glad to hear she had a fish of her own. 💙🙏🦅🕊

@eightinches3671 Жыл бұрын

@ Eileen, an adult eagle can eat an entire large fish and maybe more by himself during a typical day. This intruder is barely getting any scraps from this nest and it's a possibility she could be getting scraps from another nest. Other observers have said she has an injured talon. We don't know but for an eagle to survive they have to be eating well, not just small scraps. If the talon is injured she could be surviving on road kill. Eagles are opportunists. Hence intruding on this nest for scraps.

M15 is a very brave, protector, Daddy and a great provider of food for the babies. My Thoughts on sweet Harriet; I have a feeling that when Harriet flew away chasing this intruder it injured or even killed her. I pray daily for someone to find her, if she was injured she could not fly with a badly injured wing for instance, 💗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻I’m praying she will someway be found and 😢treated if injured and brought back to nest and her babies. Poor M15 is doing so good protecting his family but when he is finished feeding the babies almost every time he calls for Harriet so mournfully I feel so bad and sad!

@Khesoification Жыл бұрын

She's had ample opportunity to kill or seriously hurt one of the Es. I don't think she's interested in hurting them, just stealing their food. She could grab one and take off, but instead, she's eyeing up M's fish. I get she's a threat, but circumstantially so. I don't think there's intent to hurt behind her actions. Perhaps she is keeping more aggressive birds from coming in too.. just trying to think positive.
