9:42pm I assume DM now flying into and landing in the stick tree... could be that Ma snuck in when I wasn't looking as it appears two could be there.

9:44pm one of them flies out of the stick tree and heads down... Maybe they saw a meal below... not sure.

10:14pm didn't see any more movement in or out of the stick tree... Not sure if both are there now but can't see anymore.
Both visited the nest before flying to the stick tree.
Ma still limping... still her 2nd visit to the nest today.
Logging off the cam.

From last night's visit to the nest to check on Ma to see how she is doing.
9:36 am Jun 22, 2022 Ma and DM come to the nest and poke around the flowers blooming in the nest. Can see Ma favoring her injured left leg. They both eventually fly off possibly to the stick tree for the night.
Help us help Ma Delta with a new home. We are a little over half way there to meeting the goal and very little bit helps. Please visit the HWF GoFundMe page set up for donations to build a new pole nest for Ma. https://gofund.me/0be679c8

8:20am......Good morning Delta2 friends! Thanks Rose for finishing up last night......our daylight hours are long but should begin to diminish slowly over the next month or so. Thanks for the video of Ma Sandy. We can see she still has a definite issue with her leg. We hop that time will heal her leg as it has done in the past.
Our temperatures are heading upwards and we are in for some very hot days over the weekend.

8:50am.......Cannot see Ma or DM anywhere. It is so very windy this morning that everything is moving about in front of the cam. Ma and DM will have found the best place to be right now and are likely close by.
Stay safe Ma and DM.

4:18pm....IN on cam.
The embedded cam seems to be blipping off every few seconds for me. Don't know if it is the cam, if others are seeing this or not. So I will report it just to be on the safe side.
Cam went black briefly but is back on, but blipping off again. I have made a report. Interesting, once I hit the YT button the blipping stopped.
Zoomer cam is ok.

4:46pm..One of our Delta pair has arrived at the middle tower now. Must have just gotten there.
Possible eagle on the flag pole.
So these are the only 2 I can see who could be our pair. The one on the tower for sure, but don't know about the one on the flag pole.
