Eaglet photographed this morning (Feb 2)

Mary Lou and I arrived at the nest site at about 9:00 AM. There was a group of photographers from Spain. The female adult was on the nest and actively feeding the chick(s). I took about 40 shots, hoping to get an image of an eaglet. The top of one's head appeared in two photos, and just before I stopped shooting this one popped up into view. This is approximately the 18th day after the first eaglet hatched.

Yes, Mike. Once one is seen it usually is up almost every day afterward, with any siblings closely following.
