This is my second year watching the Decorah eagle family, too. I found out about it through this website, so thanks!
It was great watching the eggs being laid, and pipping, and hatching - but the real fun is coming in watching the eaglets grow and develop their skills. I'll never forget last year, when the eaglets were fairly large, they would practice 'flying'. One would stand in the middle of the nest, flap it's wings, and hop up inthe aire about 6 inches. It was so cute!
