Sunday early am 4/3/22
Hello night peeps! The EEs were both tucked and sleeping. I believe as it got dark, E20 was perched on the left. (apologies if incorrect). The wind picked up very fierce and the rain started again. It not only woke the EEs, but spooked them too.
12:12 am

E20 is on the move!
12:12 am

Drops down to the distal end of attic. Hang on!!
12:12 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont....
Hang on !
12:12 am

Hang on !!!
12:12 am

Oh boy! Hang on! E20 now tries to flap walk up the branch, but it is slippery and it's feet keep slipping!
12:13 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont....
Balance! Hang on!
12:13 am

Balance, rudder action!
12:13 am

E20 makes it! E19 is now fighting the wind out on yonder branch!
12:13 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont....
E20 is very vocal and distressed.
12:15 am

Wants to get to the nest.
12:16 am

Smart enough to know, can't fly in this crazy wind! Backs up the branch a few steps
12:16 am

Must reassess the situation.

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont....
E20 decides to zip some feathers. They all must be in the right place, to make it to the nest in this wild wind.
12:17 am

Looks down at nest again. Nope!
12:23 am

Vocals again! Mom
12:24 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont.....
"I think I can, I think I can"
12:26 am

Nope! More vocals. Both EEs are wind surfing, and not liking it much right now!
12:28 am

E20 finally gets up enough courage and takes the leap. I can't tell you if E made it the the nest or sailed across the pasture?? Here's hoping it was at least soft landing.
12:29 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont....
E19 checked out the situation, and is on the move now.
12:43 am

Big flaps, no walking. E19 means business! Makes it to the attic arch.
12:44 am

Not playing any games. Just do it! Launches off attic arch, sideways.
12:44 am

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont...
Perfect 10 point landing!! Down to the attic.
12:44 am

One more leap. So close but so far. When E19 landed in nest, sounded like landed on E20. So E20 did make it to the nest.
12:45 am

And then there were none. I'm so glad they are in the nest. I have never seen winds like this.
1:28 am

Watching the pond camera, feels like being in real rough seas. Can not even tell if adult is still perched under the nest? The cameras are all moving so much.

[lovinnature]

Sunday am cont...
1:41:03 am
All CAMERAS ARE DOWN!
No live feed.

Mother nature's gremlins strike again.

At least the EEs are together, safe in the nest. Will have to see what morning will bring
Not much else to report. Be safe sweet eagles!
peeps!

Thank you Lovinnature for your overnite updates.
Cams show 01:40 for me.



We have some great videos to watch.

[Suemac]

Good morning! Cams are still down.

360 cam views (lightened) of the EEs shortly after they went to the nest.
One E tried the veranda but that also didn't last for long.
As Sunnybird said - "it sure is hard work learning to be an eagle"
