Re: Mabel Rd/9th St nest on the Strait of Georgia, Sunshine Coast, Gibsons BC - Seasons 2020-2024

I visited this nest down Mabel Rd last month, could not see it due to fencing put up by homeowners down 9th St. I contacted Gord, one of the homeowners and he suggested I I try viewing it from Mabel Rd, which I did. The mitigation nest David Hancock supervised the building of is not looking used, as...

Re: Stalashen Bald Eagle Nest, Sunshine Coast B.C. Seasons 2019-2024

Both eagles were perched at the top of the nest tree on a visit March 3. Nest looked smallish, needing some creative stick laying. Pa flew to the old nest tree, perched at the top while Ma stayed at the top of the nest tree.
So good to see them ready and waiting for what comes next.

Re: Marsh Nest, Sechelt on the Sunshine Coast BC - Seasons 2020-2024

Visited this nest March 2, 2024. No sights nor sounds of eagle activity, nest nicely ready for use.
A friend who can see the nest from her home has assured me there is a pair of active eagles around.

Re: Larson Rd nest on the Strait of Georgia, Gibsons BC on the Sunshine Coast - Seasons 2020-2023

Wow Karen! Welcome back! I'm so glad you caught all this. My camera is not happy, needs fixing so even if car would wish to tackle rutted road down to the nest, I'd have no photos to offer. :( That looks to me like one big healthy eaglet. Look at the size of the beak! Hopefully the one below can fly...

Good to hear both adults seem to be close by Marg. They certainly haven't been very visible this year! Perhaps both are recently new with different habits from our old ones.

Re: Stalashen Bald Eagle Nest, Sunshine Coast B.C. Seasons 2019-2023

I found the writeup below on a local FB page regarding the Stalashen Dr. nest here on the Coast. The youngster is now in rehab while #2 remains in the nest. Good to know it is active! Thank you to the neighbours of this nest who saved the youngster! :hug: The Rescue : Baby Bald Eagle. Drama on Stala...

We won't give up on a youngster yet then! :dunno: I have driven through a few more times since last posting and still haven't seen a youngster, don't usually see the adults. I wondered if they were still around.

Oh Karen, I'm so pleased you spotted a youngster. :w00t: Hoping it remains well and fledges! I'm not giving up on 2 of them yet!
Thank you for this!
I'm sure the residents are trying to get some grading done through the Town. They certainly deserve a better road than they have!

Awesome Karen! I did see Pa in the tree on or near his favourite perch branch, a brief sighting of a head in the nest May 24. Encouraging!

I wonder if heron steal eaglets like eagles steal their babies? They are nesting so close together it could be a possibility? :(
