Boundary Bay Central 2023-2024 Observation and Discussion

[SueB]

1:40 pm - Pere was looking out toward the 2nd pole area at this time

Shortly after both adults were vocalizing as if someone was flying by.

1:44 pm - went back to the 2nd nest and that adult was gone so maybe it was them that flew by

[SueB]

1:50 pm - I had the cam looking around in the water area....saw some eagles but couldn't tell if they were adults or not. The cam shook and when I got it back to the nest Pere was gone....Mere remained on the nest

1:52 pm - went looking for Pere but didn't find him. Instead found what looks like a juvie out by the centre pole....a couple small birds seemed to be bothering him/her

[SueB]

2:01 pm - found an adult on this light standard to the right of the centre pole

Checked on the juvie and they are up on the centre pole now

[SueB]

2:09 pm - found an adult out on one of the poles by the water eating...I wonder if this is Pere. I think Mere has been looking out this way for the last few minutes or so.

[SueB]

2:25 pm - Mere remains on the nest and the adult that was out on the pole eating is done eating but remains there for now.

I am now off the cam.

[RoseA]

[RoseA]

7:01pm rollback, Mere sees Pere flying over the field... he comes to the nest, but doesn't stay.

[RoseA]

7:02pm rollback, after Pere left again, Mere just picked up another wing to chew on then went back to the nest bowl.

[RoseA]

7:27pm rollback, Mere is more serious about having a break this time... she leaves.
