Good Evening, Sandy, Philippe, & fellow Trio followers! Dennis Becht visited the nest area today & sent 3 photos of the Little Trio as a sneak peak. He has more photos & videos to go through. Thank you, Dennis! (Photos used with permission)

It's a great event to get outside and enjoy nature. I find it very exciting no matter how many times I see bald eagles.

Sharing a video created by Dennis Becht about his visit to the nest Monday, May 31, 21. Nice to see a very clear view of the eaglets in the nest. Thanks so much, Dennis, for sharing. :rh:

The decision has been made not to follow the Trio eagles on the forum for the remainder of their season. It is difficult to follow them from afar and the reporting is much lighter than in years past. In addition, we are no longer allowed to use ground observer photos. These photos helped to show the progress of the eaglets as they grew.


Great News: All three eaglets have fledged as of early this morning, June 13, 2021. Good job! :woohoo:

As a side note: the eaglets are branching and one of the eaglets fledged. Starr and her Valors are doing great in raising these three eaglets to become magnificent eagles. We know they will do well. Hopefully next year, the cam will be installed to watch the Trio eagles up close and personal once again.

2021 Cam Maintenance
Matching Drive

A little over 17 weeks ago, we met Tiku from our Surrey Reserve nest; this is just before he or maybe she made it all the way out of the shell:
Image

And now Tiku and Tucca from Surrey Reserve and Hope and Chase from Delta 2 have all set out to explore the world.

We do still have one young eagle to watch - this is Romeo from our White Rock nest, who hatched 6 weeks later than Tiku:
Image

At 11 weeks, he (or maybe she) is practicing perching on the nest supports and exercising those big wings. Eaglets generally fledge (take their first flight) between 10 and 14 weeks, and it's my guess that will happen in the next week or so.

And you know - I haven't really thought about this before - but our little window to access the nests and clean the cams and do any other necessary work isn't always that much longer than the 35-40 days it takes an egg to hatch. Last year the Surrey Reserve adults didn't leave until August 14 (though they weren't visiting very often after Thor left in mid-July) - and Dad Sur was back on September 26. Different pairs have different schedules - and it can vary from year to year - so it would be great if we could get ready now.

With that in mind....
Image

We will be posting more details about our Adopt-a-Nest program, the new option to adopt one of our eagles with a tracker (details soon), the Monthly Donor program - and the work we need to do on the 10 cameras we now have at five different nests.

The important thing to know is that at least the first $1000 in donations toward our cam maintenance fund drive will be matched by long-time supporters of Hancock Wildlife - so the time to donate is now!
