🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅...70mm to 300mm!
All my reading/research says it's kinda rare that an eagle nest has three eaglets... Mostly due to the fact that usually the two bigger ones kick the littlest one out...🙁... (Some say nature is cruel, but it's all about survival of the fittest...but it's been working like that forever!)
But, if food supply is sufficient and everyone in the nest stays happy, it is possible to raise three to fletchings... RARE, but possible... Time will tell, huh?! 🤞🏻
I plan on hiking to the nest every 5-7 days to photograph their progress and growth... It's gonna be fun!
She's very striking! 😍🥰😘
(Ugh...I need more lens... Like 500mm 💪😎👍... But I'm just glad I've got 24mp to crop from!....go, little D5600, go!)

A VERY NICE set!! Yeah, history says there will only be two survivors. But I'm rooting for the under dog!

Thanks everyone!... I'm also rooting for the little guy...cuz food shouldn't be a problem.
As I'm hiking back to the car, along the Little Arkansas River (it's basically a very shallow creek, practically all sand bottom and banks) and there were a ton of huge carp, some so shallow their backs were outta the water..and all were between 5-8 lb'ers... I would think just ONE of those hawgs a day would feed those eaglets to a full belly...
Fingers crossed!!!
