Someone just arrived, I think with food since they are eating, and it's not the fish from this morning.

I'm thinking this is NF. Will zoom in.

Computer issues - too many windows open. Out of the cams - will try to report later.


Crows heard nearby, then second adult arrived - no clue who is who - signal breaking up badly for me.

Busy visit - even moved a stick.

I think NM is on the east perch and NF is eating on the nest.

Sorry - I can't stay any longer. I may try to look in a little later and see if the cams have stopped pixelating.

I think it's NM on the east perch and NF on the nest, but don't dare try opening the cams again until things stop flashing.

The crows were calling near one of the mics - very loud - and NF? (the one on the nest) flew off.

The one on the perch made a few calls but stayed where he(?) was.

I'll try to check back in a while, but no promises - it's been a long day.

Adult who was on the east perch just came to the nest and is working on the leftover fish.

Thanks for your reporting Judy!

I wanted to add a s'cap from earlier when the NF was on the nest - She worked on a stick!

0952 was the time

I see we have an Eagle on the east perch. I'll watch for as long as I can stay awake :love:

2025 - I think this is the NF due to the lighter coloured feathers (the NM's are darker) and the beak. The NM also likes to perch right at the end of the east perch. She's left his spot for him

2036 - She flew and I thought she would go to the perch near the buildings, but not yet.

2100 - We had both Eagles in the nest before the NM went out on the east perch, while the NF was still busy in the nest. He flew and she followed after him, but they didn't go to the "adult nearby" location :dunno:

I'm off for the night :bye 1:

Just rewatched the above-reported visit and wanted to note that the NM arrived first and he vocalized a bit just before she landed. This is mostly a note to myself as I'm trying to learn who they are by their vocals.

The NM is pictured in the nest bowl first before the NF hip-checked him out and took over the bowl as she always does :D

Good afternoon, everyone!

I've heard calling nearby a couple of times, and this time I logged in and checked the hidden upper perch area - and there's at least one adult there! Not easy to see - but someone is definitely there.

Hard to get a picture that shows it, but I think both of them may be there - occasionally there seems to be more than one white head. And around 1:50 pm there were grooming, and I'm now sure there are two adults there. Can't really get a picture because it's as much in seeing the movement as actual parts of the head.
