5:00 am Ma and DM are still at the far right tower. They look to be settled perched on the railing. When I first saw them, they were moving around the tower railings.

5:18 am Ma and DM looked to be vocalizing. One of them moves over to the left next to the mate. This is a guess but comparing the body shape, looks like Ma is on the left and DM on the right. But just a guess.

5:22 am as I was trying to post, both Ma and DM flew from the far right tower to the left. In rollback, I can see them flying together. Then now see either Ma or DM are at the center tower.

5:29 am either Ma or DM are at the center tower. Not sure where the other mate got of to. One tower adult is on the spike and eaglet in the nest.

6:33 am the tower eaglet is in the nest and the adult on the spike. Ma and DM are still at the first pole. Based on body shape and size, Ma could be on the right and DM on the left.

9:35am........Good morning Delta2 friends! Thanks Rose for keeping watch on this nest in the evenings! A stranger seemed to be hanging around late last night and that had Ma concerned. Seeing her limping so badly even after a couple of weeks is a bit worrisome but Ma is a strong eagle and as noted, her crop is full and she is flying well. Thanks Sandy for your morning posts and video of last night.

Cloudy and cool today. Where is summer?
