11:41pm.......Rey just left the nest again.......I can hear loud vocals from close by so he's likely in the tree, or near it.
Someone is back.....might be Brit (not sure). She is offering food to the lets.
Sorry, cannot take the cams. And I have to leave.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
Our pair seems to be taking turns protecting the chicks today as the crows have been a pest and even dive-bombing the nest, but mostly harassing the adults.
I think Rey brought another black mass of seaweed in, which Brit has been moving around the nest. I'd like to see her drop it over the edge altogether, to be honest. Rey's instinct is to keep his young chicks protected, as they are now too big to be brooded.
I've got the streams running while I get some chores done around the house.

1:29 pm in rollback, Brit had been in the nest, watching her eaglets and the world go by. Then she flew.
“Eagles: When they walk, they stumble. They are not what one would call graceful. They were not designed to walk. They fly. And when they fly, oh, how they fly, so free, so graceful. They see from the sky what we never see.” – Unknown

2:58 pm in rollback, Brit returns and sits in the shade with her eaglets watching from the nest. Forgot to mention, Brit pulls that black seaweed around the nest a bit. Then she flies.

3:05 pm in rollback, I think this is Rey coming into the nest. He pokes around and gives the eaglets a few bites.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
3:10 pm in rollback, Rey (if I am right) is feeding the smaller eaglet and taking some bites for himself.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
3:13 pm in rollback, now both eaglets are lined up for food. Can hear the little squees as both get some food.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
3:18 pm in rollback, the bites looked small but Rey continued to offer those bites to both eaglets. The meal is over and Rey is watching for something off nest.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
3:20 pm in rollback, after a bit of watching, Rey flies. The larger eaglet is napping as the smaller eaglet is up and watching too.
Oops, sorry need to leave for a bit. Rey just came to the nest along with Brit with some food at 3:26 pm.“Eagles: When they walk, they stumble. They are not what one would call graceful.

Re: Surrey Reserve 2022-2023 Observation and Discussion
3:29 pm in rollback, Rey comes to the nest, followed by Brit. She brought some food but can't tell what it is. She begins to feed her eaglets as Rey flies.

3:39 pm in rollback, it wasn't a large meal but bites were provided. After the meal was finished, Brit flies.

4:03 pm the larger eaglet is up and looking around. Can see a nice crop. The smaller eaglet is napping.
