Mom Wants Her Space

After lunch, the chick wants to cuddle under Mom, but Mom has other ideas and keeps backing up....even tries doing some nestorations, but that only makes the chick think of food. In the end, they compromise....close enough for the chick, but still giving Mom her space.

You can read about the struggle to reintroduce America's symbol, the Bald Eagle, to the Channel Islands as well as watch this miracle of nature via live eagle-cam by going to http://www.iws.org and clicking first on 'interactive' and then choosing one of the 3 nests to view.... 2 are on Catalina Island and 1 on Santa Cruz Island or go to: http://z7.invisionfree.com/CHIL_EagleCAM/index.php?act=idx
