Thanks to all for the wonderful pics. I have had some health problems recently and rely on you folks to fill in the gaps while I'm lurking.
DH2 is clearly thriving, but I am now realizing the benefits of being the second or third eaglet that has to learn patience and the art of the steal for survival after leaving the nest. The last thing eagle parents want to raise is a snowflake. Maybe the gnats and the black flies will teach DH2 the hard lessons of this hard world. Mostly, I am thrilled that he is thriving and that HD and HM are learning valuable lesson (like build a bigger nest) now.
Puff, I am so sorry that medical protocols (dictated largely by insurance) require us to suffer before going straight to the most effective treatment/procedure, but I'm glad that for now things are better for you.
