4:03pm.....Our adult flew off lickety split.....impossible to follow them with only 1 cam. Cannot see where it went but it seemed to fly fast under the nest tree and towards the stick tree area, unless it turned, which is quite possible.

4:13pm.........There is no sign of either Ma or Trooper. They seem to have tucked in somewhere other than their usual spots. The winds are blowing, the cams are bouncing, the view is blurry and we have many branches in the way too. And we have night vision now, it is getting very dark.

I think we've seen the last of them tonight but will keep the cams up for a few more minutes just in case they return.


4:20pm...Well, that was good timing! Just got the cam over at the stick tree again when Ma and Trooper came flying in!

4:23pm.....Our adults will be spending the night in the stick tree. It is windy and rainy but they seem to not be too bothered by it.

7:21 am think it was Trooper who landed first, followed by Ma. Trooper goes to the rail to work on sticks and Ma digs in the nest.
