June 10

The eyas continues to grow and become more active on the scaffolding that holds the scrape. The male appears again to be carrying his load of the parenting responsibilities, bringing in prey and watching over his offspring. He sat at the far end of the scaffolding which has no protective rail along the bottom. The eyas sat almost directly underneath him, precariously close to the edge, or so it seemed to observers on the ground.
