I am now off the cams. If by chance anyone is watching and sees our eagles land on the nest please let us know. Thanks!

Everyone have a great day!

9:40pm......... :wave: Good morning Delta2 friends! Thanks everyone for checking in here this morning! We are into a wet and windy stretch of weather for sure.........feels like it should be November but it is only mid October! It will be a few more days before we see much relief.

12:18 pm: Good Afternoon, everyone! I just finished going through rollback since the last activity was posted. There was several ins & outs a couple of hours ago. Will be posting them as soon as I get the times straightened out.
It's a great event to get outside and enjoy nature. I find it very exciting no matter how many times I see bald eagles.

9:59 am: From the rollback..............Trooper, I believe by the neckline, arrived at the nest. He works on nestorations.

I think it is still Trooper, who flies in from the other side of the nest from where he left 30 seconds later. Maybe he saw something he wanted to check on. He went back to some nestorations. He left again at 10:05.

1:37pm........Thanks Joan..............so hard to ID our eagles with the wind blowing their feathers about. I watched the rollback and at one point saw the mate fly up into the tree so we know they were both there!

From the rollback..........10:05pm......One flying up to the top of t he tree.
