  • On a downside note, eagles will hatch usually two or sometimes three eggs. The stongest nestling will attempt (and usually succeeds) to dump the weaker one(s) out of the nest. The parents make no observed attempt to prevent this. Usually only one nestling is raised to leave the nest. This is common among many birds. I have seen it among robins and jays. I suspect even the parents will "thin the nest" themselves. Not exactly a Walt Disney scenario, but it is nature as it is.
  • I would retract your statement about eagles having "penetrating insights"... what do you mean by that?
