Comment made by Glacier Gardens regarding the cam. This was at 1:56am Juneau AK time:

​Hi everyone. We are seeing some intermittent internet disconnections that are disconnecting the stream while it appears to still be transmitting out. ​We will be looking into that during the day. We really appreciate your patience and hope to keep the feed up as much as we can while working through the issue.

Many thanks for getting the cam restored and back online, Glacier Gardens!!!

Good morning Glacier Gardens Eagle family.
PeconicBay, thank you for the Tidal Recap, and posting the new link!

04:42. First light, and the GG's are resting on the left.

04:47. I think this is Peace/red who is up and found a leftover/blue. Love/yellow is resting behind the branch.

04:48. Love/yellow is up.

05:03. Peace is now resting on the left behind the branch, having just finished eating. (Peace will get credit for a self feeding, as it seemed they ate for longer than just cleaning up some tidbits.)

06:17. Love flap/hops across the nest and lands here/yellow.

06:17. You looking at the left branch/green, Love? We know you have seen the adults go there.

08:58. Adult is flying in with a very small delivery! (UFO)

08:58. Closer look: continued from above. I cannot tell what the adult has.

08:59. I think Love/yellow got the small morsel, as they turned away to the rails.

08:59. Love/yellow at the rails. Peace/red still vocalizing to the adult.

09:00. Love/right, Peace/left.

09:01. Love jumped up behind the trunk. Arrow points to the end of their wing.

09:01. Love's tail feathers, appears to be above the rails.

09:01. Love's wing.

09:01. Love is hopping back to the nest.

09:01. We cannot see what is behind the trunk. Mama and Papa have built that area up high. This appeared to me to be above the rails; however, since we cannot see that area, it is not known what Love was perched on briefly there. Just something to keep an eye on. Edit: Scroll down two posts. This was a confirmed branching by Love!

These scaps are from 5-12-22, when Glacier Gardens first discovered where Mama and Papa were nesting this season. This is a different nest than where we have watched Mama and Papa in past seasons. Glacier Gardens moved the cam after this, and that is the current view we have, on the other side of this nest. These scaps are provided to show the nest tree from a different angle. This view shows the "back" side of the nest/tree.

5-12-22 08:42. The back side of the nest/tree, from when it was first discovered by Glacier Gardens.

5:12-22 08:41. An adult arrives at the nest tree.

5-12-22 08:42. An adult leaves the nest tree.

Closer look at the above scap. The branch can clearly be seen under their left foot, but it is not quite as clear on the right foot.
