7:26 am, just as I was logging in saw an eagle fly by and the cam shook. Either Ma or Trooper were probably on the long branch or at the top of the tree before flying by the nest tree.

7:30 am went back and realize that Ma or Trooper were already at the first pole but missed seeing them in the darkness.

7:37 am either Ma or Trooper are at the first pole.

7:43 am now I think I see someone inside the first tower. Could be the other mate along with either Ma or Trooper at the first pole.

7:51 am the other bird at the first tower flew. It was rather fast so thinking it was not an eagle. It looked to have circled by either Ma or Trooper who reacted by jumping up.

8:02 am so it looks like Ma and Trooper are at the flag pole and pole left of the flag pole. Saw them both at the left flag pole a couple of days ago. So it make sense these two would Ma and Trooper.

8:12 am logging off both cams as need to get on with my morning. Also, the west cam is back online. Thanks, Ken and Judy.

9:22 am - two adults on the left tower here in the E field, beyond the evergreen tree.....and thought I was seeing someone up top of that right tower but maybe not....wondering though if there could be a nest up there....kept watching and saw a large bird fly up there and then they left again....could have been another eagle.

Here are a couple bumps up on that right tower that I was watching but wasn't sure if that was nesting material or maybe some smaller birds....this was before the larger bird flew there

9:26 am - here is another adult on the distant tree to the right & beyond the evergreen tree....wondering if this is the large bird I saw fly off that other tower as they had gone to the right.
