    Spirit has to learn that there's others out there who will try to take her food. Fight for your right to eat Spirit. Dad is teaching you a lesson little girl.

    That was a GREAT lesson for Spirit. If you don't fight for it or hunt your own, you won't eat. And Shadow sassing Jackie's attempt to take some while Spirit watched was perfect too. "This is the real world, kiddo!" Shadow has been a stellar father.

    I have seen this at another nest involving a single eaglet. It is probably one of the most important lessons they will learn in order to survive. This could not have played out better if they tried. Having Jackie try to steal it from Shadow was crucial to teaching Spirit what can happen. We will have to wait until they bring Spirit food next time if the lesson had worked. Life is not easy for them so they need to learn quick if they are going to have any chance at surviving. Thanx Cali.

    BRAVO S&J 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾…. Jackie is normally the aggressor and defender of all the food the reaches the nest, but Shadow just showed Spirit how fierce she would have to be to survive w/o them. Other eagles or predators will do exactly what Spirit did (minus the small offering and patient demeanor). It’s a possibility that even J&S may have to chase her away from the nest one day. I hope Spirit got it.

    I think Shadow is trying to teach her that in the wild other Eagles won't be as forgiving and you have to fight for your food or it will get stolenfrom you. When she first took it he was happy, but then she just sat there and did nothing with it so he stole it back. If she was super hungry I doubt she would've allowed him to do that so easily. I think Jackie wanted to get it back for her but Shadow was like NO she needs to learn. Even he caved in the end and fed her some.

I remember the chat & myself upset with Shadow, asking in the chat why he was being so mean to Simba. The wise, informative mods, explained to us the life lesson Shadow was teaching Simba. I’ve been wondering if & when Shadow would have this teaching day with Spirit. Heartwarming to see the instincts & love these beautiful birds have…way to go Shadow. Young Spirit is being taught by the best…Jackie & Shadow.
