think they'll be 20 lbs by Thanksgiving? (sorry, that devil captain Tony made me say that).

I hope that's an active link. Robin Lewis is a wildlife photographer, and had permission to take a bunch of photo's of the
Decorah eagles, on june 5th and 6th, this year.

I'm going to try and post one, but check it out if you can.

Here's a link to some photo's of D14, after the transmitter was installed. picasaweb.google.com/nora.countrylass/20...#5758790371829889570

You can clearly see how big of a bird it is in these photo's.

Well, today's the last day for the webcam. They're scheduled to be turned off at 8pm Central. For those of you who
have participated, you've earned this.

Bittersweet goodbyes. From Decorah eagle FaceBook page;

"Thank you very much everyone, for all of your kind words and support! The Decorah Eagles will be back in November! It's been a great 2012 season!

Here's a very special poem by Stacy Smith to make you think like an eagle does."



When they turn on the cameras again, the little ones will be long gone. But they are alive, healthy and free.
That's a great gift.

This is sad news;

"We are very sorry to announce that D12 is dead. D12 was found electrocuted at the base of a power pole on a Sunday morning. We notified the power company, who modified the top of that pole on Sunday and several other poles in the
area on Monday.
For those that have asked for a photo of D12, here is one from our Facebook album. We continue to remember how blessed we are with all the successes from the Decorah nest so far, and we will be thankful for all the future successes as well. This is the first known tragedy from the Decorah nest, and we thank all of you for your heartfelt thoughts on this loss."





"D12 hatched on 3/27/12 at 1:20 pm, branched on 6/9/12 at 5:38 am, and fledged 6/13 early in the morning. D12 was found at the base of a power pole on the morning of 7/1/12, apparently electrocuted. D12 was 96 days old. — Sad news... D12 passes on, 3/27 - 7/1 2012, RIP our sweet Eagle."
