E5 and E6 2014/15 Sadly we lost E5 to an unknown cause
Some history about this nest ~~
Thanks to the Pritchett family for installing, maintaining and running these cams on your property. This is a family owned and run business. The cam and nest are located 60 feet up in a slash pine in a horse pasture on the Pritchett property. The first cam was installed in early September, 2012.
A mature pair of bald eagles, Ozzie & Harriet, had been coming to this nest since they built it for the 2006-2007 season until Ozzie's untimely death in September of 2015. Before building this nest in 2006, the pair had a nest on the opposite side of Bayshore Road, across the street. This location is now known as Eagle Landing. The old nest tree was deliberately killed by someone to get rid of the eagles nest in order to remove the tree.
We are really not sure if or for how long Ozzie and Harriet occupied the old nest. The nest on the Pritchett property is now occupied by Harriet and her present mate, M15.
****************************************
History since the cam has been in the pasture tree --
Two eggs were laid November 26 & 29 in 2012 -- Both chicks, Hope and Honor ( E1 and E2 ), fledged successfully.
Two eggs were laid Nov. 17 & 20 in 2013.
Only one eaglet, E4, fledged successfully E3 sadly passed away on Feb. 2 at 41 days old of unknown causes but most likely a respiratory problem.
Two eggs were laid on November 19 & 22 in 2014
Just one of the eaglets, E6, fledged. We lost E5 on Jan 20, 2015 at due to unknown causes.
Two eggs were laid on December 19 & 22 in 2015
Both eaglets fledged but shortly after were attacked by an owl. The younger one, E8, was lost for a week and found by three folks from CROW. E8 was transported to CROW where he received intense treatment and rehab. E8 was finally released into the nest area on August 18, 2016.
Two eggs were laid in November of 2016
Egg #1 was unviable and never hatched. E9 hatched, was the apple of everybody's eye, and successfully fledged
Two eggs were laid in November of 2017
Both eggs hatched and our beloved E10 and E11 successfully fledged.

OLD NEST --across the street from the Pritchett property
The pine tree previously used by perhaps two different nesting pairs of Bald Eagles for more than a decade died. An unknown individual knocked off the bark in a ring around the tree which severs the roots from the needles and starves the tree. The county had monitored the nest since 1990 and recorded 23 eaglets, confirmed fledglings.

We DO NOT believe these eagles were Ozzie and Harriet
