[QUOTE="Long Lashes, post: 394324, member: 41"] This was against all the odds , I too thought there was absolutely no hope. Thank you for posting this video Michelle I never got to see the eaglet until I watched this. Oh this is so very tragic and it made me cry, the poor little eaglet. Its too sad for Duchess and her eaglet and I'm angry and confused by Duke .. did he think it was food? was there something wrong with it? or perhaps Duke is just too immature this year? I don't think Duchess knows Duke killed it as she was having a break away from the nest when he did the deed. I guess we will never know why he killed it, It all seems so wrong and extreme doesn't it [USER=23658]@9unfold[/USER] , but what Duke did might happen more than we realise? This year is certainly a learning curve for both Duke and Duchess and to be honest I was worried about their chicks since she first laid the eggs, she would have had a very hard time taking care of hungry demanding eaglets on her own. I've just this minute checked in on Duchess and there she is sat on the other egg (which looks very damaged) and the poor little eaglet is still there on the edge of the nest. I always feel sad watching her, but exceptionally sad today and she is so beautiful. Poor little mite :( I've needed to remind myself how nature is wondrously fascinating but can be extremely tough and heartbreaking to watch. Not every Eagle pair are as in tune and as attentive as Lipstick and Guy ... its unfair of me to judge Duke and Duchess by their standards. What a rotten day though. [/QUOTE]
