SE37 somehow ends up wearing part of newly hatched SE38’s eggshell at Sydney Olympic Park—and the tiny predicament soon pulls both siblings into the action.
SE38 hatches at Sydney Olympic Park less than 25 hours after SE37. The two fluffy sea eagle siblings arrived remarkably close together despite their eggs being laid 77 hours and 34 minutes apart.
Sea eagle SE37 had a busy first full day at Sydney Olympic Park, from tiny bites of fish to a funny lesson in balance, while sibling SE38 continued working from inside a pipped egg.
The Sydney sea eagle pip is here, with movement visible inside the egg as Lady and Dad stay close and hatch watch enters its most exciting stage yet.
Lady steps away from her two eggs long enough for the Sydney Olympic Park camera to move in for a remarkably close look. With hatch watch drawing nearer, every mark on those shells suddenly deserves a second glance.
Lady and Dad’s Sydney Olympic Park nest has reached the two-egg stage after several days of delayed incubation, wet weather, nest exchanges, food deliveries, and careful egg care.
Lady and Dad shared a beautiful morning duet before a slightly wobbly Lady rose from the eggs and handed the Sydney Olympic Park nest shift to Dad.
