Spunky Takes his position on the Launch Pad
6:41 a.m. He is at the launching pad. Been moving his wings a little bit, trying to get up the courage. Just back over to 9 o'clock and did a little poop shoot and then back to the launching pad. Lightened that load a little bit! Oh my God, he just spread his wings out, he has the look. Nope, folded them back in! Doing a lot of flapping all over the nest. Back at the launching pad, looking around. Just moved a little closer to the edge. He wants to really bad! He is so close to the edge, his head gets out of camera range sometimes. He keeps spreading his wings out like he is going to and then back in. It is 6:50 now. A little head bopping going on. Camera freezing up a little bit. Wings back out. Now back in but head still bobbing. My heart is racing. Head keeps going out of view. 6:56 a.m. Wings back out. 6:58 a.m. SPUNKY HAS FLEDGED!!!
Spunky not only needed to learn to fly, He needed to learn to Thrive and that meant Food! No more Mr. or MS. Nice Guy , No more waiting for everyone else to finish. Watch Spunky's Great save here. And Spunky needed the Courage and Fortitude to weather the Storms of life. Some watched, some prayed, and Spunky held on
Spunky fledged in style on the day our country flies its Flag high in commemoration of Our Freedom. Survival in the Land of the Free also requires Courage and sometimes downright perseverance to keep on keeping on!!! Who would have thought we would see this played out before our very eyes by the youngest and smallest of 3 eaglets!!!
May God Bless You Spunky, and your siblings Big Boy, and Ms In Between.
May Liberty and Belle continue to "Soar above the skies" and return in the spring to once again
MARVEL EACH OF US, with their displayed Splendor, Beauty, Devotion, Courage, and the Steadfast Commitment it takes to succesfully fledge a young eaglet(s).
Our country continues to defend the value of Freedom for All. While here why not take a moment to remember however you choose "What Price Freedom"...Lift up a prayer, pause for a moment of silence and reflection as you listen, and remember to thank a veteran or active member of today's Armed Forces.
