Adult Bald Eagle Checks on Bald Eaglets Left in Nest

Occurred on May 7, 2022 / Basalt, Colorado, USA

Info from Licensor: Two young bald eaglets hate to be left alone in their nest in the Frying Pan Valley of Colorado. One adult stays close by to keep an eye on the chicks as they train to be independent. One eaglet is much larger and more developed than its younger sibling, which improves its chances of survival.
