Thanks for the update Dr Ken. Very sad news indeed. We can only hope. The only comfort is that thanks to the Swift actions of Lazaro, Phill and other volunteers the other eaglet is having a second chance. Thanks to them and to the Pelican Harbor organization.

No adults or eaglet were observed at the nest since early this morning. No calls to suggest a grounded eaglet. Wildlife rescue was contacted. FWC and a volunteer searched the area around the nest tree extensively but did not find the eaglet. They saw two large burrows nearby which may have been dens of Coyote or fox. Raccoons also scavenge for prey remains under eagle nests. We must presume that the eaglet has perished, but observers will watch for behavior of adults if they return and also continue to listen hopefully for cries of an eaglet.
