The 13-week old had been “branching” for days, a little late for the normal 10 to 12 week first flight. 

“It was a great weekend at Princess Place for eagle lovers,” said Frank Barbuti, Manager for Flagler County Parks and Recreation.

The Princess Place-born eaglet is believed to be female because of her large size – females are generally larger than males.
