Re: Oak Bay Eagles, Oak Bay BC - 2019-2024 Seasons

My birding friend has seen one eagle in the lookout tree up on Anderson Hill Park a couple of times in the past week; the fact that there has been only one makes me think the banded one that was in the terriorial battle and died was its partner from the new nest on Island Rd. She also saw one of the...

Re: Swan Lake Eagles, Saanich BC - 2019-2024 Seasons

My birding friend visited Swan Lake recently and saw 2 eagles perched high atop a tree near the Nature House. They were still perched there when my friend left 2 hours later. The female was vocalizing quite a lot just before my friend left.

Re: Southern Vancouver Island & Lower Mainland BC Eagle Nests - 2019-2024 Seasons

My birding friend visited the nest in Hollywood Park on March 6th but didn't see or hear the eagles in the area. She did not see any evidence of a new nest being built. However, she found the eagles a short distance away perched together on Crescent Rd. where they like to perch.

I visited the nest area on Mar. 10th with my birding partner and did not see or hear any eagles around the nest tree. We couldn't get a good enough view of the nest due to the dull dark weather :( Saanichton Bay Eagle Nest.JPG We walked down the path to the estuary and spotted an eagle perched at th...

Re: Southern Vancouver Island & Lower Mainland BC Eagle Nests - 2019-2024 Seasons

I have reported on this nest on the Tsawout First Nations Reserve land in Saanichton in Central Saanich a few times in the past but the nest fell down a few years ago and the eagles have not built it up again until recently. I visited this nest with my birding partner on March 10th and we noticed th...

Re: Oak Bay Eagles, Oak Bay BC - 2019-2024 Seasons

I was alerted to a very sad and devastating incident at the new Island Rd. nest on Sunday March 3rd. The property owner opened her blinds in the morning and saw 2 adult eagles fighting in her back yard. It was very traumatic for her but she did grab her cell phone and recorded a few very short video...

Re: Southern Vancouver Island & Lower Mainland BC Eagle Nests - 2019-2024 Seasons

I have had a few reports from Ann Smith about the eagles at Hollywood Park over the past couple of months. She sees them almost daily, somewhere in the general area. My birding partner and I met Ann yesterday and while we were in the local cafe Ann saw both eagles at different times flying from the ...

Island Rd. Eagle Nest cont'd. While wandering around the area my birding partner spotted an adult eagle perched in the tree the eagles used for many year before they left the area.

Re: Oak Bay Eagles, Oak Bay BC - 2019-2024 Seasons

I visited the site of the old nest on Island Road in Oak Bay with my birding partner on Jan. 31st. To our surprise the eagles have returned to the area and built a new nest in the same tree. There is a new house on the nest tree property and the owners have made sure the nest tree has not been compr...
