What does EAGLET mean in Scrabble?
noun
A young eagle, especially one still in the nest or not yet fully grown.
An eaglet hatches nearly helpless and covered in down, and it depends entirely on its parents for food and warmth until its flight feathers develop enough for it to leave the nest. Eagle nests, sometimes called eyries, are often reused and enlarged year after year, so an eaglet may grow up in a structure far older than itself. The word is also used figuratively for a young or promising person just beginning a career.
