  • It is a sad day today as E14 passed away early this morning. CROW was able to come and retrieve E14's precious remains and the non-viable egg to determine the cause of death. M15 was in the nest when CROW arrived and left as the bucket was raised to the nest. M vocalized warnings and circled the nest tree before perching at a distance. As CROW and the truck were leaving, Harriet arrived to the nest tree, vocalizing at a 3-4 yr old sub adult circling the nest tree. M arrived to help Harriet secure the territory. They remained in the nest tree before Harriet dropped to the nest. Soar high and free little one. You now have your wings. You will always be part of H & M and tucked tight in our hearts. We will find strength observing Harriet, and M15 as they grieve.
    Thank you to my friend & fellow spotter for helping me get this footage recorded.
    Thank you SWFEC, hosted by Dick Pritchett Real Estate, for providing & maintaining suitable trees & environment for this Bald Eagle Family. www.SWFLEagleCam.com
    Thank you to Dick Pritchett Real Estate (SWFEC), Church of the Nazarene, Eagle Landing & several friends for allowing me to film on their premises.

    My heart is broken. Every night, before I put my phone away, I would go to the live cam to say good night and leave them with a kiss. I have never let anyone in my family see me do this, because some just did not understand my love for this family. I am soo sorry for Harriet and M. And wonder what will they do for all the month’s ahead of them , where they would have been raising their beautiful baby. So sorry for all of us that have watch this nest for years now. 😥🕊Love to all of you. And especially Vicki. Please take care.❤️

      I don't know if this gives you some comfort: E-14 was loved by many people, and of course her dear parents. Her soul pure, innocent is roaring in Heaven right now, for some reason God decided to take her away from this Earth. Maybe God needed this little angel in Heaven

      I still find this so heartbreaking. So hard to believe this eaglets not on its nest. This baby would gobble down all kinds of food. Different varieties. At night the eaglets presence is with Harriet and M15. They both took good care of their precious baby. 26-27 days of happiness and enjoyment for all of us watching it grow. I will never ever forget this day. RIP my baby. Soar in the skies with the other eaglets who are no longer with us. Luv you.

    My heart is crushed. I would like to add this info for all bird owners and potential bird owners. They did verify it was a blood feather break not a fishing hook. Broken blood feathers act like straws. They are very dangerous for birds and can be deadly very quickly. I have 6 conures, 5 cockatiels and 2 parakeets. If they break a blood feather i have to pull the remains of the shaft immediately because sometimes you do not even have time to get them to a vet. Birds are great at acting like nothing is wrong even when blood is present. Its their nature so predators dont seek a weak or injured bird. Trust your eyes and not how they acting. If you have birds and they break a blood feather there is styptic powder you can keep on hand, cornstarch or flour that will encourage clotting once the shaft is pulled. I wrap them in a towel gently to help them feel secure and it helps me control them. Any bleeding is never a good sign ever. My prayers went out for E 14 last night. We now have an angel looking out for us. Thank you wskrsnwings for this video.

    • @riebug
      @riebug 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @@lindamessmer4257 if it was just the blood feather then most likely yes. Once you have a hold of the bird and find the broken feather you just take tweezers and pull it lime you would a splinter. The quick stop, flour or cornstarch is just to encourage the clotting while the hole in the skin closes. You usually watch them for about an hour after a pull. If it's not removed it just keeps the hole open to the blood supply that was feeding the feather. Hence why it is said it acts like a straw.

      Mary Cebzanov, once the active bleed was noted, Pritchetts and CROW took action. Everything that we could possibly do was done. I am posting a timeline of events and CROW's statement to help you and others see we tried to save E14.
      Here is a timeline of Events 1-14-20:
      A very small spot of blood was noticed on E14’s leg around 3pm. It couldn’t be determined if it was an injury or from a food source.E14 remained sleeping at the rails until 5:20pm when fresh blood was noticed on the eaglet. At that time the Pritchetts contacted the proper authorities and CROW was notified of the situation. There are legal issues involved in removing an eaglet from the wild. Sunset at the nest was 5:56pm.
      The following is a statement from CROW: "As soon as CROW staff became aware of the situation, efforts to coordinate a rescue began. This process includes obtaining permission from federal and state wildlife officials prior to intervening in an active nest. Entering an active nest at night poses a safety risk to both the adult eagles who could become agitated by human presence and seriously injure themselves during the rescue process, as well as the safety risk to the personnel attempting the rescue. Realistically, a rescue attempt was not possible until this morning at which time we were notified the eaglet had passed away overnight." CROW then came and removed E14 and the unhatched egg from the nest and took both to their facility for initial examination.

      Mary.. I was following nest in California last yr, with 2 eaglets. Bad cold weather as nest up in Mountain area. Long story short, one of the Eaglets died on Memorial Day ,2019. I was so upset, was overcome with how much the death effected me. Could not watch any of the 3 eaglet nest sites I watch for weeks after that. But .... Remember: This is hard now. But as you continue on to watch other birds weeks from now, you WILL start to find joy again. I have watched a camera set up on the upper Mississippi fly way. Saw hundreds of eagles that live there. To see all the birds that are surviving gladdened my heart after seeing first eaglet I ever witnessed dying on live camera. Things will be better. My heart goes out to you, as I went thru it. 🙂. Take care, Mary.

    Just read preliminary veterinary report posted on NE BE website saying a broken blood feather
    on its left side, left side was heavily covered in blood. No other trauma was found that would have caused death. Now looking into the toxicology end of things.

      Andrea Sommer, I am glad you read what they wrote. But to get the complete facts, it is always good to go to our live cam website and the chat and also CROW's statements as they were the ones who retrieved the eaglet and egg and did the examination.

    I want to thank CROW for doing that very kind job. I know that when the little baby of Jackie and Shadow died, { a pair in Big Bear} and his little body just sat in the nest it was so, so sad to watch every time you watched a video. For a little while I could not watch. I am sorry for Harriet and M15, I don't know what they feel, I guess they feel a loss just like we would, but God has His hand on them and they will go on and have healthy babies. I am sorry for you Vickie because you put so much love and time into them. I have cried like everyone else..I feel like I have lost a loved one. God is in control and as someone else said...She had to go home because the Lord of all missed her.. Blessingsxx

    Vicky, I admire your courage to make this dignified video, suspecting that the absence of your narration might be because you couldn't trust yourself to speak. My heart hurts, but I am thankful to the Pritchett Family for maintaining this site, to our wonderful cam ops and mods, and especially to you for being able to be a part of the eagles' lives. Our hopes and dreams remain alive for a better year next season. Broken hearts do mend, but it takes time.

    I couldn't believe how much this affected me. When I saw Harriet's eyes that morning I saw pain and loss and I broke down. I could handle the 2nd egg not hatching, but the empty nest was too much. I won't stop watching these beautiful birds, this incident made me feel that much closer to them. All God's creatures are made with love and we see that reflected in all animals. RIP E14.

    Dear Miss Vickie. I cried the entire time I watched this. Cried and cried. The silence spoke volumes. As hard as it is to watch, it helps by answering many questions that folks like I had. After hearing of E14's death, my next thought was of you Miss Vickie and I prayed you were ok. My third thought was of all the classroom children and children viewing from home. Hugs to you Miss Vickie
