As someone who was adopted, I definitely appreciated this story.

I was adopted too and this was awesome story
He was practicing. Same way high schoolers took care of an egg😂
This story just warms my heart! I follow Southwest Florida Eagles. M15, who is raising his 2 eaglets: E21 & E22 because Mama Harriet never came back home. We are all crushed with that story.

He became a "widower" since the eaglets were barely one month old, and against the odds, both eaglets survived and fledge ❤️

Me too. I follow Mr M15's family's story. I never knew eagles were so "family oriented". I just thought these raptors hunt, eat and sleep, and just do that routine offspring production without any whatsoever attachment we know of. M15 opened my eyes wide. And oh, yes, Harriet will be missed dearly. We're all proud of papa M15.
Love this story. Glad you found the eaglet. Great idea to have Murphy raise the chick.
I feel like Murphy is going to become a permanent foster dad for orphan eaglets

He did! He’s got a new little one this year!
Hope they get a ton of donations. Junior & dad need a lot of meat.
I like how he laughed when the rock came up.😂
What a unique story and so precious.Good job Murphy. ❤
In the wild bald eagles do share hatching duties. Good for Murphy!!! Couldn't Murphy have a rock in the future that does not have sharp edges though, if there is a next time? One that is round shaped would be more comfortable. Neat video!
So many eagle stories this season!!! ❤🦅

I love Murphy! I'm so glad he got a chance to use those natural instincts. Although animals are in captivity, it's ideal to get them as close to a natural environment as possible and provide them with all they need to be a balanced and healthy creature. Providing a foster chick to an eagle who was obviously wanting to parent was a stroke of genius. And it's probably given Murphy more stimulation and enrichment than the facility could provide with other means. A baby to raise, feed and protect is a fulfilment of Murphy's life and all his natural instincts. Bravo!💕🦅💕
So that's where Kid Rock came from

Sadly, they don't want to name the baby. They wanted to release it back into the wild. Giving it a name might make it stay. Bad luck.
I love these two eagle so much!
Im so happy to see one more eagle happy with his parenting
one day the baby eagle asked his father, "father, where did I come from?"

He replies: "Well kiddo, I was sitting on a rock & I went to have lunch. When I got back to the nest, you were in it. The hoomans put you in the nest, they know more about where you came from so you should ask them."
Beautiful amazing creatures.
Murphy is currently raising his second foster child.
Lovely story ❤
It's pretty cute.
Symbolic. Apex. Rare.
He hatched a rock 😮
Very cool❤✝️🙏🏼🕊❤️
Rock baby lol
Not yall saying the eagle is Trans because you associate being a loving parent with being female. That's really sad.
That's my guy
Eagle gone broody!!!
Why not keep the rock for the next season. Murphy might need it in case there's no eaglet to foster
a new ron desantis bill : "dont say murphy the eagle"
I hope whoever buys that rock tells them to let Murphy keep it.
So much denial about the paternal male and the changes that our minds and bodies go thru. I know we become much more agressive to hostile forces and threats to ournoffspring, even in humans.
He needs a female next year. Just because he can’t fly doesn’t mean he needs to be lonely.

I mean, not really? For starters, with eagles (and most birds of prey, really) it's the female that is larger. They also share incubation and parenting duties pretty evenly. You could say that eagles are matriarchal since the females are bigger and are the ones that hold down the territory, but saying that a male eagle is trans because he loves and takes care of a nest is unfair to both humans and eagles.

you idiots are ridiculous. Yeah, Josh…I mean you. No one can joke anymore, haven’t you figured it out? you’re going to hurt someone’s feelings and they will need a safe space, a stuffy, a coloring book and everyone to say they’re justified in their stupid, juvenile thoughts. I am so sick of teens/young adults not wanting to face reality and function in the real world. no trophies. get use to it. that’s life!!

@joshcantrell8397 did you listen to the story or ever read a book. They said male eagles help with the raising of their young. I've seen it on the live eagle cams in nests. The male will keep the eggs warm so mom can go hunt and take a break. It's not abnormal.
