Heard someone land - think this may be SF with more straw.

She (?) spread it around a bit, looked around, and flew off a minute or two later.

I've got the south cam on one of our pair. The other one is there but higher up and mostly obstructed by the tree limb. You can see a little bit of the white tail.

7:44 am logging into the south cam. One of the eagles flew from the top of the tree.

Good morning, everyone! They do pick some interesting hiding places, don't they, CC!

Sandy, I have a couple of s'caps - hope I don't bump into your story line.

Both still in the tree at 7:31 am - interesting that they are staying perched as it gets light; something appears to have upset them, though I didn't see what it might have been.

They stayed there until 7:43 am, when one flew down to the nest, as Sandy mentioned.

And the other one continued watching from further up.

7:51 am SM flies for the upper part of the tree to the nest. He quickly moved out to the right perch.

Thanks, CC, for locating our eagles last night.

Good morning, Judy. Thanks for the additional scaps and information. Always great to have second set of eyes. :)
