SWFL Eagles ~ Bobblehead Bonkfest Begins! Equally Matched Messy E's wobble & duck! 😊 1.24.21

One day old E's are really equally matched and are seen engaging in a bobblehead bonk fest! The both are messy Marvins from the juicy fish that Harriet was feeding earlier as they wobble and duck and then collapse & rest before starting all over again lol 😊 Harriet and M are going to have their talons full this season with these two!! M arrives and offers some fish to Harriet to feed the kids. Harriet departs and M has to babysit. They are hilarious looking when M gets up and we see them both at 11:27. Thank you for watching!

Harriet:. Kids, stop fighting at the dinner table! Don't make me call your Dad!

[@SamtheMan0508]

Sounds like my childhood.😅

[@susannorth138]

@Rainlily!! YES!!!! My mom always said that. But.....(to the tune of LOVE SHAK BY B52’s) It’s the love nest, love nest baby, yeah & GET RRREADY TO RRRUUMMMBBBLLLEEEE!!!

[@Liz_678]

😂

[@cheryljohnson869]

Both E's: Uh oh, dad's here! quick, let's pretend like we are napping!!

[@geneval3151]

They remind me of the "Rock em Sock em Robots". A joy to behold though. They seem very healthy with lots of energy. I pray they stay that way.

[@Teremei]

Harriets like. "I have food. The thing you're fighting for".

[@melindamasi3505]

😅

[@nickymarch2914]

Lol 😂😂😂

[@eeejil]

Oh my they need a trip to the pond for a bath! These two are adorable, but then again I love all of Harriet and M's babies.

[@annepearce6604]

These eagles are so precious Dad feeds Mom and Mom feeds babies. True love ❤️

[@DebraGill]

They are evenly matched! I noticed that first off! 🤣 We are in for a show! 🤣❤️💖💕💞

[@christinekent140]

Its so funny .. I love watching Harriet and M15 raise their babies. been watching them for years now ..Since E9 .. He stole my heart.

[@nanettemclean5]

Mine 2 x

[@FlBirdLover]

Messy Marvins indeed! They are so cute! Yep. Harriet and M will be very busy with these two!!! They are so adorable and fun to watch. Thank you, Lady Hawk!!!

[@TomSawyerEaglePro]

GE Lady Hawk! Omg you just have to laugh at this footage😂. Normally we're a little worried about the younger one being two days younger and getting beat up but this time we're seeing evenly matched Eaglets pound for pound (ounce for ounce in this case) slugging it out for dominance. 18 gets some good smacks in there on 17 lol. Evenly matched it much more fair to watch instead of having to worry. I loved this almost dual feeding we got from Mom and Dad and Mom did take a few bites from Dad to feed the kids. The kids look hilarious all covered in that fish🐟goo at the end too. Mom comes over to brood at the end of a lovely 1st day and what a great end scap. Thanks LH! SEDs🌚🌙💜

[@lyndatruitt4245]

Such great team work Harriet and M15..

[@aeriefaerie1166]

It’s absolutely amazing that there isn’t an epidemic of one eyed eagles in the world, especially with those egg teeth getting thrust around.

[@dannybob9999]

😂😂🤣🤣

[@wandae9906]

Lol, great video LH!! Thank you for the giggles! :-) "Messy Marvins" indeed, ha! -Hugs

[@pamelatwotwo79]

They are the best parents ever ! They make it all happen together

[@kathyhaldimanbaumgartner7746]

🤣😂🤣🦅🦅 too cute with all the wobbling going on. Fun watching them daily ❤️❤️❤️

[@L1011MD11]

Those wobblers are so darn cute! I prefer this bonking fest than any UFC match.

[@christineh4782]

Awe! They are so cute!!! Thank you Lady Hawk! May God bless you and your loved ones and keep you all safe during these difficult times.

[@youkie5321]

I also don't like to see them sooo determined to bonk the other one's eyes out. They are adorable & beautiful. I love seeing Mom & Dad working together trying to feed them, but they are much to busy to eat?? I hope they grow out of this real quick. Thanks 👒Lady Hawk👒 💗🦅🐥🐥🦅💗

[@RuthieSeptember]

I feel like I’m watching a bonk-a-thon with a time-out scattered here and there!

[@LaurenLady]

Wow how interesting H and M create a meal train and pass food to each other, I have never seen that, thanks for sharing!

[@pathenshaw7952]

It was an oh oh moment When I saw the long stick fall into the nest. Saw Harriet looking at it and knew she’d have move it...such a tidy house keeper. The E’s are so adorable and entertaining 💕 thank you LH for all your time & narration

[@annpriddy7941]

Now I see a reason for bonking. When one submits the other gets fed. And when it’s full the second gets fed. These two are equal. They are so busy bonking it’s hard for mom and dad to feed either one! Oh dear! These two are going to be a challenge. 😂🐥🐥

[@obi-wanakakenobi6750]

Omg...those pink bellies are too cute 🤗

[@alicemilling3706]

My goodness they need to be separated before someone gets an eye poked out Wow they are feisty 😯🥰

[@joshsmom6662]

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeez, even dinner being served doesn't distract from the bonkfest 😵🥰🦅💓 Feisty little babies 🥰

[@nellowynpitman1439]

They’ve just exhausted themselves, time to nap ❤️🦅🦅🐣🐣🇦🇺

[@christinecalifornia8136]

That view these darlings have...looking up at such a huge and majestic parent standing over them. Just awesome!!

[@lifewithlisaa337]

lol omg Becky, I am so in love💕❤️😍, they are the cutest things I have ever seen and I have grandchildren!! 😀💕❤️

[@suzycat2026]

Time out, time out! 1 day old! Where's the referee ? 🤩 Oh my I'm laughing but concerned they may injure eachother. Why why must they attack eachother, then they fall down exhausted to rest - only to start again! Look at their big tummies with no feathers ❤ they are so endearing. Fingers crossed these siblings will soon realise their is no need to attack , plenty food. How nice to see both Parents working at feeding them.🐱♏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦅

[@bernardmcmahon5377]

Great comments 👍

[@shereeritz1131]

Love watching these two bobblehead 💕 So funny

[@ja-uh9gz]

The Bonking Brothers...a name I'll give them for now...lol. Looks like some fuzz is missing on both.

[@lorrainejackson2881]

Oh how hilarious! These two are really funny to watch, just what I needed to cheer me up! :)

[@carolynnunes3922]

Amen!

[@esther5333]

Love these little fuzz heads!!

[@lspeedyg3]

Oh my goodness! They woke up grumpy 😂

[@samanthadove9340]

They're to funny. Does make me a little nervous tho to watch at times with all the bonking. I love this nest. To see Harriet and M so patient

[@lovewillwinnn]

I know right. Their two funnee

[@marysmith9934]

Every time I watch those two I laugh! At least they're both about the same size so they both have a good chance of surviving these bonkfests. :-)

[@carolynrobbins3413]

Can’t believe they are fighting already, mom can’t even feed them because they won’t hold still. They are so cute and spunky ❤️

[@lindajackson8647]

Poor Harriet trying to hit a moving target! 🎯🙂

[@bernardmcmahon5377]

I’m new to watching the beautiful, harsh behaviour of these birds, I find it very interesting, thanks 👍👍

[@sharonnephew2608]

Awwww I could watch this beautiful family all day! Thank u Lady Hawk for the great videos💗

[@mariannegalloway5421]

OMG! Had me in stitches!! Wonder which one is going to poke out the others' eye first?

[@Dreez76]

Right !. They're so cute with their mohawks, but at the same time you can't help but worry about accidents happen.

[@denisemarle4141]

Both firecrackers!

[@marysteggles2271]

These two are hilarious and, equally matched. Have no idea how they can tell them apart!

[@lindareid5461]

These two have me laughing right from the start! They are adorable! Will be fun watching them vie for everything!

[@cherylhoward6111]

So precious!

[@aneia6353]

Hopefully the jugular bonk doesnt do much harm. This has been a crazy bonk nest today!

[@stitches281]

I noticed that too. Wow. Going for the chest hairs.

[@socaldolly2616]

This was adorable! Chicks are more interested in bonking that eating! 💕

[@Lisaf825]

The weeble wobble effect is so hilarious, thank you Lady Hawk!

[@barbaramallick2097]

Lol, they are definitely not interested in eating ,they want each other's beaks dont bug us mama..🦅🦅❤

[@Jazzlyn255]

It beautiful seeing both parents help feeding..one parent giving the other food to give..To these gifts..

[@sherrischweigl6860]

Nobody will get fed at the rate these two are bonking. These two are feisty. 🪶💖

[@mariemcallister7413]

Two scrapers lol they are well matched. Poor M trying to get them to calm down so he can feed them

[@riebug]

These two are fiesty! I looked in on them at monday 10: 50 am est and they were duking it out under the parent. Full on rumble. This will be an interesting nest this year. 😂

[@kim267]

Yowza! They are really going at it! So funny to watch, at this stage, anyway! It's going to be work for H & M!

[@judithk7644]

Wow! 🤗😜! What a mess!!! I am seeing black eyes on both of these Messy Babies. Hey, food isn't good until you are wearing it! Right? EEWWWW! AHAHAHA! PIG PENS!💖💖💖💖💖

[@deloresmichael1468]

Educational! Thanks for the video

[@jenniferinbucks]

Wow...that is a tricky job!!

[@donaldpicciotti9112]

They are too funny! Too busy bonking to eat!😂❤️

[@kimberlykay1495]

Bahaha. When the both parents flew away and then the kids heads popped back up they look like they had a rough night and like hey where’s breakfast? I don’t understand the fighting nonstop but it’s funny

[@aliciav6502]

The most precious thing in this video, is when M gives Harriet the fish to pass on to the little ones. Talk about teamwork!❤

[@SadieHawkins915]

This is the video where I saw their lil beaks go directly in eyes

[@pamspangle62]

There they are!!! 💞 Already fighting! Good grief! ☺️

[@ibond2708]

😂 so fun to watch

[@MultiEbony2010]

They are starting the season off with a bonkaton

[@NightwingDraco]

sweet fluffy birbs :3 they are really adorable

[@kmsbanr]

Oh my word! What happened to those sweet little white fluffballs? By the end they were a shocking mess. One thing was perfectly clear both had full baby crops lol.

[@Firebird-65]

Beautiful! ❤️

[@debralounder3810]

I like others ( I’m sure) called this early on. With a nest bowl like this it’s like a boomerang effect . I’m thinking these are going to be two strong eaglets if they keep up with this pace...hopefully it pans out that way.

[@dib2059]

Omg they collapse from bonking each other lol feisty lil E’s

[@deelb9462]

I don't really like to see this. I know it's natural and this is what they do, but I worry that one of them might get hurt.

[@cherylhoward6111]

They are just playing like siblings do

[@armywidow6004]

Poor dad/mom, trying to bring "law and order" between them. Silly kids.

[@martymoore4090]

There was another nest, last year, I looked in on occasionally. 3 babies, virtually No Bonking. Is there something in Harriet's DNA that says "Bonking Non Stop from Day One"? Another bird question that'll never be answered..... I mean, I understand bonking as it pertains to feeding and status, BUT from DAY ONE!!!!! That's crazy.

[@judithk7644]

It's called Pecking order. This will calm down in a few days. Until then? KaPow! Take that!🤗

[@AA-kf7uf]

I had the same wuestion. I follow an osprey nest here in CO....some seasons no one gets bonked, even if 3 chicks, then other seasons, bonking so bad I am surprised no injuries!

[@armywidow6004]

What about M15's DNA?

[@nancyg1673]

lol...a good morning laugh. Reminds me of the ole weebles wobble but they don't fall down!

[@daniellebolstad717]

As adorable they are and lil balls of fluff they sure can battle! Wow the one on the left was really thinking it had the sibling while it was twisting back and forth but it was only the bedding lol. I’m not sure who is E17 or E18 but is it just me or my eyes but the one on the left seems a bit more plump then the one on the right? Hmmm 🤔

[@nadineF]

I love this age :)

[@lyndatruitt4245]

They are little dance babies 💞oh mommie is here better stop wait mommie turned her back...i smell food.lol

[@armywidow6004]

Only way H was going to be able to feed those 2 was from M handing off the food to her.

[@ABCDEF-os5or]

It's so hilarious to see these one day old eaglets fighting like enemies ready to kill each other and they're only pint size.

[@madelinewilliams3435]

so little and they already showing who is the strongest ,If I was mom I would leave both hungry lol

[@timbrei7981]

They’re so hungry I think they think each other is food and not realize that mamas got the food

[@pamelatwotwo79]

Please let us hear the babies ! It makes a difference

[@ewachoung8903]

Too busy with fighting with each other to pick up food that mom feeds. Wonder whether they treat each other as a piece of food. Thank you for sharing.

[@Airbearncubz]

Also at first I thought, “this is very sad, why don’t the parents split up and feed them both?” Well, 1 i have seen the parents duel feed so I suppose they do it when they can. & 2 I believe as hard as it is for us to watch it’s actually quite important for them to be improving their ability to fight for food when they are on their own, when they are fending for themselves. Hopefully they will both leave the nest and be each other’s allies then when they need to be agents other eagle grownups. Just part of being an eagle 🦅

[@karendegeyter2937]

Omg can one make the other one bleed at this age Lady Hawk? Look at them go to early for this E17 and E18. They needed a lil rest for a few. Then starting all over again is going to be rough until they go take a nap. They match up in size. Lol love them so much.

[@carolynnunes3922]

Me, too! Totally in love!

[@karendegeyter2937]

@@carolynnunes3922 Look at them lil faces.

[@Hanzofalconry94]

Nice 👍👍

[@Tolbens]

They look like puppets!!!

[@Liz_678]

Adorable 🥰. Like my childhood😂😂😂

[@sandramoser3284]

E15 and Harriet! Guess you will have to find them a Stuffy . Price maker. Two little shits came out with guns drawn. Lol 🐥🐥🦅🦅

[@greenmonkey15100]

What is that aweful sound😮😮

[@ctrongful]

I'm not sure they don't think the other is lunch.

[@WhiteDragon110AC]

Been watching the live feed today , that submissive chick isn't going to get enough to eat if it doesn't start fighting back at its sibling .

[@ja-uh9gz]

I guess, when they're hatched on the same day...both are equal in size. The more aggressive one (usually the oldest and biggest), bonks until the smaller one submits, or lies down. These two are equal opponents, so feeding is more of a challenge?

[@dawntaylor7802]

Ha ha, mums like, I'm trying to feed you. Will you pack in fighting.

[@lmae989]

Geeeez!

[@dantheman5745]

Hey, who can't relate to this? When we were little, my brother and I used to just sit there next to a dead squirrel, biting each other in the face too. Ahh, good times.

[@lillianbatista4073]

OMG!😲 this season it's going to be a bumpy ride!!!! "Fast17 & Furious18" 😂🤣😂🤣🙏❤❤

[@loridori7862]

I saw this live and laughed the whole time!! How did they get so wet though????

[@Shadowstorm612]

It's nice they are the same size

[@diegolove173]

That's what I thought with Captiva nest both born the same day equally match eventually the femal won the battle because she was feisty

[@chamed27]

It looked like a nasty bite, and not a bonk, that little bobblehead on the right delivered to it's sibling in the first minute or so into bonkfest. 😥

[@catherinebreitfeller669]

I don’t like to watch this part.

[@jeepgirl1224]

Agreed, wish they would just snuggle

[@lonepilgrim4854]

Yeah, I’m afraid someone’s going to lose an 👁 eye

[@vanda6121]

There nothing to be done, fights are inevitable, even these babies also hit each other for good. The baby food. 🥋🐥🐟🐥🥋✨💕💕🙏😊
