Nest OK, eagles OK after storms yesterday.  MrN brought two large fish, at about 6:00 and 7:00 this morning.  I believe DN18 claimed the second fish, then didn't quite know what to do with it, so MrN took it back and fed it to the eaglets.   DNF visited the nest briefly about 9:15.  Cattle are in the pasture and grackles are picking at nest materials.  It's a good day.

After several days of several fish for breakfast, today the eaglets have not been fed at all and it's time for lunch!  About 6:00, DNF brought a large stick that they jumped on as if a long, skinny fish, but no. 

DN18 revealed white primary wing feathers when stretching.  Good for ID, but DN17 may also have them.

Love that spread wings pose, STL! Thanks! :D
