I've been busy with some personal stuff, but came back to the computer to see one of the adults up on the slanted branch and the other one eating on the nest.
I'm going to log in for a closer look, assuming they wait for me.

Came back to the computer to see one of the adults eating, and the other up on the slanted branch keeping watch. I do think this male has some learning to do (or a few instincts that haven't quite kicked in yet) - but I'm hoping he's on top keeping watch while the female enjoys her dinner.
And the one who was eating on the nest is now out on the East perch.
I think I need to go back a bit to figure out who is who - and since we need to be off the forum by 5:30 so the tech folks can do the upgrade for the server, I may not be able to tell the rest of the story until the morning.

The one on the perch moved further out.
And flew off around 5:13 pm.
The one up high is still here.
And left a minute or two later. I heard some calling in the distance, but didn't see anyone.
I need to do a couple of things, and then the forum will be offline for a couple of hours while we do an upgrade. See you on the other side - and have a good evening!

Good morning, everyone!
I've unlocked the forum, and hopefully all is working as expected on our new server.
I checked the dvr back to the evening visit, and didn't see any activity during the night.

Someone just flew to a branch above the nest.
And then continued on to the hidden perch area.
Very foggy morning. And I am logged out of the cams.
Added -
The adult on the hidden perch flew off at 8:07 am.

I was a bit surprised to see that even with the balance issues the eagle has with the lack of tail feathers, he or she was still able to stand on one leg (briefly) to scratch an itchy chin.

I had to take a few of my own scaps. He/she still looks stunning but in potential distress. I wonder how that happened? I'm deeply concerned about his welfare, ugh.

I have found that watching Eagles in Nature is the best and most addictive show on Earth - CC
Re: Surrey Reserve 2021-2022 Observation and Discussion
Here's another scap from the video for the record. Amazing to see - immature eagle appears otherwise to be strong and healthy.
Thank you for posting.

1549 - It's been mostly quiet today. Too foggy to see much on the cams. Perhaps we'll see them before bedtime

If anyone notices any differences between the male and female, please feel free to grab still(s) from the videos to support your observations! Anything that will help ID them will be gratefully received! I think we are all struggling somewhat at this point!

I suspect this is the female, though it's hard to tell - but she seemed to have some darker feathers or a little stain on the side of her face yesterday, so....
Looking back quickly, it looks as if she may have arrived at the higher perch on the west side around 4:56 pm.
A closer look around 5 pm.
She went down to the lower perch shortly after that.

I don't want to move the South cam in case someone is there - will log in quickly on the North cam to see if the male is perched up higher.
Not seeing anyone there - I'm out of the north cam and really need to say goodnight now.
Have a good evening, everyone.
