Cool. If you can find the link, I'd love to take a look.
Eagles are eagles but parenting strategies show subtle differences from nest to nest, depending on conditions, the number of eaglets, how plentiful the food sources are etc. It is fascinating to watch.
Peace's sibling is getting a lil tough love now that they are alone in the nest.
There is no sibling there to teach them how to mantle or protect food or how to steal/ fight for food. The eaglette was used to Momma bringing food and feeding them. Now Momma has to make the feedings something they "fight" for so they will learn how to manage in the wild.
There is a video of the first time the mother did this. The look on the eaglettes face, their confusion and subsequent temper tantrum (biting moms feet) is precious. They are getting plenty to eat, they just have to work for it a bit now.
