Good morning Ferenz and all NCTC viewers. Time has come for me to say goodbye. This nest has been amazing to follow this year. The parents Belle and Smitty are truly beautiful eagles. Love the lighter colored tips to their feathers. Both of them are great parents! Talon and Spirit are doing marvelously well! Flying all over the place now. We've even watched them coming to the nest for meal and then flying off with the fish in their talons. They are doing great!

We've all had a heck of a year with the Covid-19 pandemic. Now that restrictions are lifting it's time to get out and enjoy nature for ourselves. :) Take care and be safe. :bye 1:

Updated. Sat with message from ends TTC that wasn't put on Friday

We installed two new nest cameras yesterday and everything went smoothly. Clayton tested both cameras for audio and video and the images look great. We inspected cables, connections and adjusted camera angles. We did have a brief visit by one of the adult eagles, he flew by @ 10am and headed back toward the river. A big thanks to Kyle and Matthew at S & K Enterprises who brought their tree service crane truck and did the hard work of getting to the nest, 95 feet up in the big sycamore tree! Next week NCTC will be installing new web servers, so when that job is done we will put both new cameras online.

Check back. I may have to work something out in the barn or the office to get the camera running

Morning NCTC Friends :bye 1:

Ferenz and all :bye 1: Many thanks for the updates, observations, screen captures :rh: :bravo:

Here is my video of the intruder adult eagle that visited the nest recently. The intruder may still be in the area as the adults seem watchful at times. Here is to hoping the visitor moves on.

640 to 715 am
Bella and Smitty worked on the nest in the early am, both brought new sticks to the nest too.
Watchful at times, hopefully the visitor is not hanging around.

Have a terrific day.
