The eagle nestlings also fledged about 20 days after the hawk.

@2:52 We have the first appearance of the 3rd chick. At this point we felt this was a runt eagle.

But how that hawk egg came to eagle nest ?

[@MidsierramusingBlogspot]

It is more likely the hawk chick was brought into the nest for food and the adults decided to feed it instead. I never saw a third egg before I saw the third chick and I could see down into the nest from my view spot above.
