Photo of Eaglets
Good news from Vermont! Amy, the Hack Site Coordinator, reports that all six eaglets in Vermont have fledged. Some of them took a little longer than the others, but all have made a first flight and have returned to the tower at least once. Congrats to all the Maryland eaglets and especially "our" eaglet!
Also, we're very pleased to post a new wallpaper showing our three musketeers from the Eagle Cam nest. The photo below was taken by Craig Koppie when he first went up to our nest to fix the camera and check on the eaglets back in early April. He was kind enough to forward this to us today, and we thought it made a nice memento of our little crew, especially now that they're starting to go their separate ways. Follow the instructions below to put it on your desktop. [Edited to Add: In case you're not sure, in the back left is Porthos (the VT eaglet), in the back right is Athos, and in front is the youngest, Aramis]
As for news from the Eagle Cam nest, we've seen a couple shots of Aramis getting a meal over the last couple days, so he's still checking in with the parents. But we've only seen a little of Athos over the last couple weeks, so he's probably close to being independent.
