Re: Delta2 2019 -2020 Observation and Discussion Thread
Good morning, everyone!
Delta West cam update -
I've just heard from Ken and he's spoken to the people living at the Delta site, and it sounds as if a rodent has been nibbling on one of the wires. He can't get out to work on it today; there's a slight chance he might be able to get out there tomorrow, but Saturday is the more likely day for him to be working on it.
As a reminder, he may need to take the East cam offline briefly while he reruns wires or reboots things.
Keeping fingers crossed that it's an easy fix once he can get out there.

Good morning Judy.......thanks for letting us all know about the W cam. This is actually good news as replacing a wire should be a relatively easy fix........much better than not knowing what might be happening with the "technical" end of things! Thank you Ken!JudyB wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 8:59 amGood morning, everyone!

8:18 am in rollback, Ma brings in some grass while Sunny and Shadow looking for bites from leftovers. I think it is Shadow on the right based on the white of the whitish coloring on the tail.
Great news, Judy, and hoping for a simple fix.

9:56pm.............Just a note to let viewers know we will be short on zoomers for the next few days...........If anyone is watching please post what you see as this makes it much easier for zoomers when we are able to get back online and try to figure out what has happened on the nest while we were not here.

9:37 am in rollback, Trooper came to the nest. I couldn't see what he brought with him, if anything. But he didn't stay long and then flew.

1:18pm..........IN on E cam........will take a moment to check the rollback.
From the rollback........No adults have been back to the nest since the last post. Sunny, I think was doing wing stretches at one point while Shadow picked at Sunny's legs ................then later Sunny found some leftovers in the nest and was eating them.
