It was amazing to watch the eaglet grow and develop during month two. The students seem to be amazed how how different the eaglet looks from week-to-week. The eaglet was banded, measured, and sexed this month. We have found out that the eaglet is a Male. By the end of the month, the eaglet was seen hopping in the nest and stretching his wings. He appears to be preparing to fledge.
