7:19 am it is really really windy. Hard to hold the cam still long enough to get a s'cap. Ma and DM are together at the center tower.

7:21 am a blurry view of the tower eagles. One adult is on a spike and the eaglet is in the nest. Stay safe in this wind, little one!

9:32 am logging into the cam. Will probably stay only a few minutes to check to see Ma and DM. That wind is still blowing. No visits to the nest since the last post.

9:39 am think this shadow is either Ma or DM perched in the stick tree.

9:44 am this is the area I am seeing one of our eagles in this stick tree. At least I think it is either Ma or DM. I just can't get close to watch with the wind.

9:55 am I think I saw glimpses of a white head in-between leaves blowing. So it is probably Ma or DM in the stick tree protected by the wind to a large degree.

10:00 am logging off the cam. Will check back in but will be later. Stay safe Ma and DM, plus the tower family.

12:38 pm one of the tower adults is on a spike and eaglet in the nest. Either Ma or DM are deep in the stick tree, staying away from the wind.

12:47 pm have to look very close to see either Ma or DM tucked into the stick tree.

12:50 pm logging off the cam. Everyone stay safe with this wind. Not sure where the other mate flew off too as didn't see them when I checked the poles. Found another place to tuck into I am sure.

1:57pm.....Good afternoon Delta2 friends! Thanks Rose and Sandy for posting since last night. It is very hard to see if anyone is in the stick tree these days because of all the leaves but it makes sense that they would take refuge from the wind or hot temperatures there! Our heat wave is over, but although today it is windy and cloudy the temperatures will be rising again soon.

Great photo of the lightning Rose!
