I've been on the cams since around 8:45 am but having lots of problems moving them and also with the rollback, which I keeps clocking when set at 480 resolution, anything higher than that is at a dead stop/black screen. With the zoomer cams I am finding that I have to lower stream on the West Cam in order to move it. I normally run it on the #1 stream with no problems. Based on the fact that I'm having trouble with both the zoomer and the embedded cams I am going to say it's something on my end.

8:53 am - one of the tower adults is on the nest

9:01 am - their mate flew in from the right and landed on the top left spike

[SueB]

9:16 am - the Tower adult up on the spike flew off to the left

[SueB]

9:35 am - the tower adult is now up and could be doing a feeding....

I am logged off the cams now.

I am logged into the cams.

4:57 pm - both Tower eagles are at their tower....one on the nest and one up on the right spike

[SueB]

5:17 pm - the tower adult up on the spike flew off and came down to the nest area...landing on the rail or outside of there at first.

The adult that was on the nest flew over to the left

Then the other adult....assuming this is the female....went onto the nest and it looks like there was a feeding

[SueB]

5:19 pm - here is looks like the adult on the nest (on the right) is reach over to feed a chick....I can't tell if there is a small someone there....looks like a smudge but could be nesting material and not an eaglet.

[SueB]

5:31 pm - here is looks like the adult on the nest is moving nesting material around...or maybe it is leftovers but the way they are moving I am leaning toward they are moving nesting material.

5:37 pm - a little bit later the adult on the nest moved to the right...I thought they were laying down in the nest for a minute or so but now up and now it looks like they have picked up something large and then moved to the left....and maybe they are eating for themselves now.

[SueB]

5:48 pm - looks like an adult here on this east field tower

5:51 pm - an adult now on the large tower in the east field (power tower)....they weren't here a short time ago as I had just checked here.

[SueB]

5:56 pm - someone came flying in from the right side of the Tower eagles' tower as as they were coming near the tower adult out on the platform flew out a little further to the left.....the unknown eagle flew by the tower and kept going....as far as I could tell they pass by the far right tower and continued on from there.

This unknown eagle did appear to be an adult here

[SueB]

6:00 pm - both tower adults remained on their tower

And over the east field...the adult on the Power Tower remained up top

I am now off the cams.
