3:22pm..........Thorough search of the area for the last 35 minutes or so...........Absolutely no sign of Trooper. The only eagle I saw was the tower adult who was standing on its tower all the time I was here.

I am now OFF both cams.

Will try to get back this evening to see if Trooper shows up.

8:32pm..............Trooper is not moving around tonight.............not like before when he was going from pole to trees to towers. A clear indication there are no other eagles close by. He doesn't feel the need to make his presence known.

9:02pm.....Trooper seems to be content on the first tower...........even though it is getting dark now.

9:09pm......Can't believe he is still there........almost dark now, can barely see him.

9;13pm.........I think he has outlasted me tonight! Too dark to see much now. But at least we know Trooper is still in the area. He will leave when he is ready.

Thanks everyone for being here today.....................I am now OFF both cams.
