11:17 am looks like condensation has formed on the west cam. It makes it look foggy out toward the center tower where Ma is perched.

11:43 am no change as Ma is still inside the center tower and Trooper on the first pole. The west cam has cleared with the condensation.

11:53 am Ma announced his arrival with what looked like vocals. She then flies off to the right after a couple of minutes. And I lost her.

12:02 pm well now I am looking and wondering if I am seeing both Ma and Trooper inside the center tower. I am not sure. She may have flew back in while I was looking for her and had this cam off the tower. Tried to go to the rollback on the east cam but didn't see if this happened or not. Hmmmm?

12:05 am well I was wrong. Only Trooper was in the center tower. He flew off downward just like Ma did. So they must be on the hunt for food.

Well, I made a trip around to the poles and towers, plus evergreens and didn't see Ma or Trooper. 12:15 pm logging off both cams. Hope everyone has a nice afternoon. If anyone sees any activity in the nest, please share observations.

I don't know what is wrong but every time I go to the https://hancockwildlife.org/delta-2-cams/ page, the cams :vid: (both views) just spin. This has been going on for awhile now, like weeks. It doesn't matter if I'm using Firefox or Chrome, the problem is the same, I do not get a live view on that page. :(
