Lansdowne-Beach Dr. Nest - Apr. 25th cont'd.
In one of my photos I thought I saw some white between the sticks at the side of the nest but did not actually see any eaglets.

I visited the Lansdowne-Beach Dr. nest site on May 9th. I saw 2 eaglets sitting up in the nest from the side street behind the nest tree. One of the eaglets was sitting up staring at me while I was across Beach Dr. in the little park across from the nest tree. I could see the 2nd eaglet moving around but it didn't sit up to look over the side of the nest.

I drove down the road to see if an adult was perched on their favourite tree but didn't see or hear either of them. When I got back to the side street I saw an adult in the nest feeding the eaglets.

I visited the new nest at Willow Beach on May 9th. One of the adults was perched beside
the nest and the other one was perched offshore on a pole, being harassed by the crows.
This photo was taken from the street in front of the property where the nest tree is located.
These 2 photos were taken from the beach beneath the nest tree.

I visited the Golf Course nest on May 9th. One adult was perched above the nest but I didn't see or hear the 2nd one. I was not positive I saw an eaglet in the nest because the lighting was not great at the time I was there and my photos are a bit dark.

I visited the Sylvan Lane nest on May 9th. I didn't see or hear any eagles or eaglets and there were no 'white blobs' on the road beneath the nest. I was very surprised to see one of the houses near the nest tree had been demolished and some equipment was removing the rubble. A fellow was there with the hose to keep the dust down.

Re: Oak Bay Eagles, Oak Bay BC - 2019-2023 Seasons
My birding partner did a tour of some of the nests in Oak Bay on Wed. May 17th.
Sylvan Lane: She did not see or hear any eagles in the area. A resident informed her of a new nest that the eagles built this past winter but they have not used it this season. The new nest is on one street over from Sylvan Lane.
Golf Course: One eaglet was seen in the nest and one adult was perched in the nest tree.
Willows Beach: Two eaglets seen in the nest and an adult was perched in the nest tree.

I did a tour of the nests in Oak Bay on Friday June 16th.
I viewed the Lansdowne-Beach Dr. nest from the street behind the nest and saw 2 big eaglets in the nest
I viewed the nest from Lansdowne Rd. and an adult was perched above the nest squawking at a crow that was harassing it.

It was a bit breezy high up in the nest tree.
Both eaglets were looking around the area and watching me.
I went back to Lansdowne Rd. to snap this photo of the eaglets just before I left.

I drove down the road to where the adults usually perch and waited for one of the adults to fly in.
I had a good view of the nest from the side road & saw the adult feeding the eaglets.
The adult then flew up to the branch above the nest.
After waiting 15 minutes the 2nd adult flew in and perched in the usual tree down the road.

I visited the nest at the Victoria Golf Course on June 16th and was so thrilled to see 2 big beautiful eaglets standing up in the nest While I was down the road at the marina I saw 2 adults flying above the marina towards the nest but did not see them at the nest. After I left the nest area I saw an adult perched in a tree down the road by the maintenance yard but wasn't able to stop for a photo.

Re: Oak Bay Eagles, Oak Bay BC - 2019-2023 Seasons
I visited the eagle nest at Willows Beach on June 16th. The trees are so full of leaves now that the nest is hardly visible through the branches. I was told there are eaglets in the nest but I did not hear or see them. I was able to capture part of the nest through the leaves but the eaglets will be more visible when they are bigger.
These photos were taken from the road in front of the property where the nest tree is.
