I'm finding the cam controls really stubborn to move............and not responding right away. :(

2:37pm.......With only one cam working it will not be possible to keep both adults in view at the same time.......will have to go back and forth I guess.

Here they are: One on the far right tower..........and one inside the middle tower. :woohoo:

2:45pm......Well, we were lucky that time as the cam was showing the middle tower........and look who is flying there to meet up with the other one! Both Ma and Trooper are now home for sure!! :hooray: Of course we need to see them both on the nest for a positive ID.

2:47pm....Hi Sandy and Linuxgw2......yes, I think we can feel confident that this is our pair! So good to know that Ma is safe as we were not sure about where she was..............but with both here, we know they are ok.

2:49 pm yeah, Jean, the heart flutters thinking they are together again and both are safe. Now, time for Ma to make it to the nest so we can see her beautiful face!

2:52pm.....They are probably discussing their vacations away from each other and Trooper is telling Ma that the perching branches of the nest are shorter. :mrgreen:

Ok, Jean, I am really giggling now. Yup, and they have some "house" work to do too! It is so good to see them together. :rh:

3:05pm...........I hope they will both come to the nest so we can get a positive ID..........that might not happen until later. After that is done we should be able to start up the new thread.
