Hi Mary!

WOW!!! Oh my gosh. Thank you so much for posting the photo's from fb. I'm not a fb member so I can't view them. Absolutely beautiful photos. I really liked the one of Red showing off her wings. So wonderful to see photo's from ground observers. Thank you again Mary.

You are very welcome Rita!! Since there isn't much to be seen in the nest and the cam had been off and on I asked the photographers again if I could post their photos here and most of them said yes. That way we get to know some of what is going on in the nest area with the parents and fledglings. From what I have gathered they have only been seeing 2 of the babies. I hope the other one is OK!!

I have another nice batch of their photos to post---so here they are!

We have 2 visitors on the nest this afternoon. I wonder what has happened to the third eaglet?

This was posted by Cindy Duffala, the FB page asministrator, this morning ---

"One of the three has only been seen a couple of times since fledging. So, I would guess that one is out learning the ropes. One has been in the nest area most of the time. The other was gone for a while, but has been back most recently. The two around the nest are still having their meals delivered! Lol!!"


Later in the day---YAY! all 3 on the nest! The missing baby has reappeared!!
