Embedded W cam back but not much of a rollback ... no visits to nest on it.
Looking at the evergreen tree, what a wet blobby mess.

Can't even get a good look at the stick tree.

No eagles or birds on poles or towers.

Here is where our eagle is at in the stick tree. Hard to see through the raindrops but they are there

Anything is possible Rose. Was it in the same place as the one I was zoomed into?

Great catch Sueb

Eagle in the Fern tree!

I'm like you, i'm leaning toward it is Trooper perched in the fern tree. Where he always perched
last season with Shadow.

Good to know he is still around the nest area, Now where is our Ma, come back Ma we know
you were around few weeks ago.

It was just a bit lower than the one clearly up top, if that makes sense...

The one where we were seeing the tail moved and then the cam swayed down so not sure if they are still there

Just got clear picture of tail. I say Troopers ! for Mas tips of her wing feathers go past her
tail a bit and these are within the tail. Trooper.. Just did a shake of feathers maybe to get some the rain off. But this is my observations.

Be nice if he would pop over to the nest for a brief visit. But this wind is crazy so I would
stay put too.

Great job cam operator staying on Trooper, for the cam is a bouncing like crazy.

I think you are right Linux....that seems like Trooper and I went back to watch where he moved, when I thought it was two of them and now thinking it was only one eagle. So hard to tell.

It is hard to tell for sure,

but here it looked they were close with the head of one clearly visible, but the tale below seems to be of an eagle facing a slightly different direction. At moments I think two.. then think one. :dunno:
