Eagles of Southwest Phoenix Getting Flight Instruction

The Eagle family featured by Buddy Walker’s beautiful photos are gradually growing feathering in preparation for flight training.  The large Eaglet on the right that I call Uno will be first to stretch his wings.  His siblings, Dos and Tres are clearly visible to Uno’s left.  Without both adults, Sam and Loretta, sitting side-by-side it’s difficult to determine which bird is instructing in this picture.  The female Eagle is larger.  Surprisingly Eagle conversation is soft, melodic and bell-like.  Clearly the Eaglets are attentive students.
