SWFL Eagles ~ M15's Left Eye Irritation! Nest Work & Discussions! A Fish Gift For F23 🐟 11.17.23

It was a foggy morning in the pine and M15 & F23 are both on the nest doing some aerating of the nesting material. They have some beakie discussions while they are nestorating together. M15 heads to the veranda and F23 to the spike - both fly to the attic. We have some closeups on M15's left eye which he is keeping closed. M15 might have got some nesting material from last night's dried leaf delivery and all the aerating of the nest in his eye and it caused some irritation. In prior seasons, M15 has had some type of eye irritation from either allergies or something gets in his eye. He is fine and is able to open his eye and it is clear. Later, M15 flies in with a fish and F23 is hot on his tail. She lands on the attic and squeaks at him looking down at the nest. She finally drops down, grabs the fish gift and flies off to eat it. We have more closeups of M15's eye.

Here are some of my videos from 2017, 2018, 2019 & 2022 showing M15's same issue:
