Great cam work and can really see the supports that were put in place to support our Delta2 nest tree, great panaramic view.

We are so thankful for David's love of eagles to go above and beyond to make sure all is safe for them at the nest site tree and be apart of Ma and Trooper's world...

5:11 pm - I have to say, from the W Cam view.....the cam cover is not as dirty as it has been in the past.

Alex was explaining how he locks in to be as safe as possible up there. But, also still commenting on the health of the tree....unfortunately not sounding great...lots of dead branches.
