Joe-
After you posted the cam on the Eagles at Norfolk Virginia - this morning my wife reported not seeing the mother.
Well it is confirmed that the little chicks have lost their mother. The mother eagle was struck by a US Air Jet this morning.
A few minutes ago the father eagle dropped a fish in the nest. But the chicks are without a mother.
Editors Notes: While unfortunate, this sort of thing happens more often than most know. However, this simply means the Father will have to work much harder to get food and raise these babies.

And if this were a private plane, what do you think would happen? Can the gubmint fine the government for killing an eagle? We shall soon see...I believe anything is possible under this administration!
The eaglets were removed this morning from the nest and taken to a wildlife place in Virginia.
