Kansas Eagles 3-12-26. Osage & Kaw Feeding Clips; Harvey & Ellie Chow Down on Leftovers!

Описание: Watch the Kansas Bald Eagles (National Bird) live eagle cam here: https://www.youtube.com/live/GNue2tsz...

Video opens with Harvey brooding. Ellie arrives with nest material. Harvey hops over the nest cup and leaves with a cool flight out, into the wind. The next segment shows Ellie getting blown over by the wind. This is Kansas.

Later, Harvey brings a fish (brought rabbit earlier). There is a short clip of Ellie feeding Osage and Kaw. Ellie leaves with a cool flight out. Next is a feeding clip featuring Harvey feeding Osage and Kaw. The final segment of the video covers Ellie and Harvey eating leftovers. There were at least eight fish/partial fish on the nest, plus the rabbit prey, and likely other leftovers. Harvey and Ellie both will eat on the nest. It's nice to be able to watch the whole family eat on the nest. Osage and Kaw were likely full, as there were 13 feedings on this date. Time stamps below.
