SWFL Eagles ~ A Crow Chases & Hits E18 In Mid-Air! E17's Pond Visit, Tail Nipping & Closeups 4.29.21

Both E's are perched on the DSPS (drive side pond snag) and they fly off. E17  lands on the attic and watches E18 flying near the front pine area being chased by a crow. At 1:00 you will see E18 flying at the lower left of the cam and then at 1:45 E18 is seen on the right side of the cam with a crow chasing and hits E18 in mid air and loses altitude!  (I put in slomo!) Wow!! E17 flies off the attic and gives chase while E18 is still being chased by the crow! E18 finally lands on the nest and E17 on the veranda- what dang pesky crows!!

E18 lies down to rest in the nest and E17 will join her. They have a cute beaking moment and then E17 gets up and swishes its tail in front of E18 who nibbles it at 6:09. ♥ Then E17 will nibble on E18's tail at 6:52 and offer a little bone to E18 at 9:16.

E17 will fly off the attic and head to the pond for a sip of water and return to the attic. E18 is up from her nap and joins E17 on the attic and we have some wonderful closeups of our dynamic duo! They are so beautiful! The E's are 96 days old! Thank you for watching!
