My thoughts are with those who follow the Hilton Head nest. Having experienced such loss we share in theirs. Suemac :brknhrt:

Sorry to hear about these two young eaglets that did not make it. :cry1: What a great loss. Condolences to all who followed this nest.
Sure hope the mom and dad will be ok, and are able to have many more eaglets, that will safely grow up, and successfully fly away into the wild blue yonder !
Sue thanks for the info and link. :hug:

Why does Harriet bring bromeliads to the nest? Are they ornamental? Is she expecting Paddington the Bear to visit?

Lol grosbeak! I’ve read that they might help freshen up the nest and could also indicate to other birds that this is an actively maintained nest. No way to know for absolute sure, though 😀
Best wishes,

full supermoon

Post by lovinnature » Tue May 10, 2022 8:03 am

Hello peeps! Just some interesting information, about the moon, coming up soon.

May 15–16: Supermoon and Total Lunar Eclipse
The Flower Moon, as it's known colloquially due to the blooming of flowers in May, will be the first Supermoon of 2022. When a Supermoon occurs, the moon is within 90 percent of its closest approach to Earth, so it'll appear slightly larger and brighter than other full moons (Space and Technology).
To make this event even more spectacular, the Flower Moon will also undergo a total lunar eclipse, turning it blood red — this happens as the moon enters the Earth's shadow. The total lunar eclipse will be visible across most of the Americas, starting around 9:32 p.m. EDT on May 15 and ending around 1:55 a.m. EDT on May 16, according to (NASA).
Happy sky watching !

Thanks, Lovin. Good job! It's certainly more than I saw. I woke at 2 o'clock with the bedroom full of moonlight. Went out on the patio and saw a huge, silvery full-moon just above the trees. Unable to find my rose-colored glasses I went back to bed.
