Lochside Eagles, Central Saanich BC - 2018/2019 Season
Welcome to the Lochside Eagles thread for the 2018/2019 season. The nest is on private property on Lochside Drive which runs parallel to the Pat Bay Highway on the Saanich Peninsula and is easily viewed from the side of the road. The eagles have successfully fledged many eaglets in past years and 1 eaglet successfully fledged this past season. The eagles are often seen perched in tall trees along Lochside Drive near their nest, as well as in trees at the waters edge in Cy Hampson Park, a short distance down the road towards the Town of Sidney. They often hunt in the big fields across the road. Please feel welcome to post your observations, photos, videos and discussion of these eagles whenever you visit their nest area.
Observations and photos of these eagles from past seasons can be viewed here.

On the way to the airport this morning I saw both eagles in their nest, moving sticks Only one was visible in the nest when we drove by on our way home. We didn't have time to stop for photos.

Re: Lochside Eagles, Central Saanich BC - 2018/2019 Season
I did a tour of the nests on the peninsula yesterday. There were no eagles seen or heard around the nest but just as we were leaving the female flew in and perched in a tree near the nest tree. I did not see any new sticks in the nest. The photos are poor quality as it was very overcast and late in the day.

Re: Lochside Eagles, Central Saanich BC - 2018/2019 Season
I drove very slowly down Lochside with my windows open to listen and get a good look at the nest and surrounding trees on my way to and from Sidney today but did not see or hear any eagles around the nest area or anywhere along Lochside. An eagle could have been down in the nest but not visible.

Re: Lochside Eagles, Central Saanich BC - 2018/2019 Season
As I was driving along the Pat Bay Hwy. yesterday I caught a glimpse of a white head in the nest. I went back to the nest site but did not see or hear any eagles in the area. There might have been an eagle in the nest incubating but I didn't stay long enough to see it get up.

I didn't have time to stop at the nest site on Tuesday; we ran out of time However, we did see one adult perched in a tree near the nest tree and the top of a white head in the nest while driving by on our way home

Re: Lochside Eagles, Central Saanich BC - 2018/2019 Season
I drove by the nest area this afternoon and did not see any eaglets or adults in the area. There was one adult perched down the road near the dog park but I didn't take a photo of it; it was raining quite hard at the time.
