Pa and Lady both spotted side by side on the top rail of the AN at 10.20 AM this morning. On my return walk only one on the top rail at 11 AM.

This leads me to think it was Lady I saw on the top of the Pandora tree the other day and Eastvan Girl had a sighting of Pa at a different time that day at the Pandora tree.

They're back ! :woohoo:

Hi Steamer,
I saw him there today, also. He's been at the nest quite a bit today - and on Tuesday I saw both Pa and Lady at the Pandora tree in the afternoon.

Both eagles still hanging around folks.... :Cool:

At 9.15 AM one perched high up on a southern branch at the Pandora nest and at 9.25 the other spotted on the top rail of the AN.

Lots of activity around both the Pandora nest and AN today folks.

First up were several flights and a few nice landings on the nest at the Pandora location around 9.20 AM this morning. Witnessed a few trips to the tree and some flights around the neighborhood in the high winds around this time by one of the pair.

Next up was eagle flights and landings in the high trees east of the AN. Lots of crows in tow during these observations about 10 minutes after the Pandora location observations. Nobody perched on the AN during this time.

Been a while since I last posted but wanted to let everyone know that the pair has been around every day. I see them on the AN usually as a pair on the top rail in the morning. Later in the day one on the AN and the other at the Pandora tree.

Hi all Lafarge eagle lovers

If our eagles have gone to Harrison to eat salmon, then just for a daytrip because they have been been seen around
their home daily by Stan.
They do spend some time at their hometree but mostly they like to sit together at the AN.

This picture was taken by Stan today at 10:52 am.
Pa is sitting in front and lady is sitting closer to the mountains,(it looks like she is sitting to the right of Pa.)
They both are facing South.
What a mighty sight.

The next picture was taken by Stan a week ago, Nov. 18th at 11:04 am.
Lady is sitting to the right of pa facing the mountain and pa is facing south.
Pa likes to sit where he is sitting right now therefore I know that Lady joint him on his site. :rh:
She seems to still be very much taken by Pa. :rh:

:bye 1:

Good morning Irish Eyes thank you for stopping by. :huggie:

Yesterday Stan and I drove by Lafarge at about 2pm and both eagles were sitting on the AN.
Then we drove by again at about 4 pm and they were still sitting on the AN. :eag: :eag:
By this time it was starting to get dark.

I must say it is a very nice spot to hang out. :yes:

I hope that everyone here has a nice week.

:bye 1:

Thank you all for the reports and the pictures of our pair - glad to hear that they seem to be following their usual off-season routine.

I must admit I am wondering who the 8000+ eagles going after the salmon in the Harrison Mills area are - like Pa and Lady Lafarge, all of our on-camera pairs seem to be spending time near their nests - and while the Harrison Mills pair is close to the action there, the pairs at Delta, White Rock and Surrey Reserve would have a ways to go if they wanted to feast on the salmon there. There are lots of adults in the pictures, so it's not just the younger, non-nesting eagles who are there. One of life's little mysteries, I guess.
