EAGLES UPDATE

Bald Eagle, Delta, BC, Canada - These 2 eaglets are around 5 weeks old. Eaglets generally take their first flight 10 - 14 weeks after they hatch, so if all goes well these eaglets could try flying somewhere in mid to late July, or possibly early August.

White-tailed Eagle aka Sea Eagle, Sunnmore, Norway - About 6 weeks old today. Like the Bald Eagles, they will fledge at eleven to twelve weeks. They will remain in the vicinity of the nest, dependent on their parents for a further six to ten weeks.
