FLEDGED! The eaglet has vacated the nest. No sign of it Fri and Sat mornings. Parents on the oak across from the nest overlooking the York River.
First time I've seen the parents in two weekends. They looked to be protecting the nest/chick from what appears to be a three-year old eagle.
Found the eagle chick up on the branch this morning. Then it was harassed enough by a pair of bluejays it took refuge in the nest

The eaglet hopped up on the branch going through the nest at least twice this morning and flapped her wings multiple times. Fledging can't be too far away.

Only some brief glimpses of the eaglet this morning, but got both parents together for a change and they were quite animated

Dad gaurds the nest while mom overlooks the river. Junior peeks out for a few seconds and appears to have lost all the fuzz off his head

An eaglet was spotted by others yesterday, but no sight of it this morning even after breakfast was delivered by one of the parents
