December 18, 2025: An intruder at the North Nest

This video could easily be mistaken for an amorous DNF with a shy Mr. North, but looks can be deceiving! DNF was out collecting sticks when an intruder landed on her nest. When she returned, she footed, shoved and bit the intruder. But the intruder refused to leave, although she sought a temporary reprieve on the bionic limb. I found the last part especially interesting. The intruder at no point attacked DNF and assumed a submissive posture toward the end of their encounter: wings folded and tilted downward, 'shoulders' shrugged, and body tilted slightly forward. I expected a more aggressive interaction but instead it looks like the intruder is interested in moving in. DNF eventually took off (also unexpected!) and the intruder moved branches around before leaving. While we don't think this is the beginning of an eagle thruple, since the intruder left, it did make us wonder if this is one of the ways an eagle thruple gets started. Even after years of watching, eagles continue to surprise us! Full video here:    • Decorah North Eagles: Intruder  (explore.o...  .
