What a success story here this year! Thank you Christine for your devotion in watching these eagles and reporting to all us avid supporters out here. Pa is truly a hero. Any young female eagle will be lucky to hook up with him. :rh:

It has indeed been a wonderful season after the sad start - Pa is the greatest! Thank you so much for sharing all of this with us, Eastvan Girl.

As you may have noticed, I like keeping track of dates - so was it around the 20th when the fledglings left? Did you see Pa in the area for a while longer, or did he leave around the same time?

Thanks!

As an aside, we think the Surrey Reserve and Delta 2 fledglings have also set out on their great adventure.

Hi JudyB,
Yes I would say the eaglets left around the 20th because I haven't seen or heard them since around that time. As for Pa, well I was going to say I hadn't seen him either but after talking to my husband just now he told me there was an eagle at the tree this morning and the crows were giving it a hard time. So perhaps it is Pa and he is still hanging around. I'll keep checking on things. Hope this info helps for your record-keeping.

Thanks so much, Eastvan Girl - and it wouldn't be surprising for Pa to hang around a while to make sure the fledglings were really gone and his job for the year was done - and perhaps to do a bit of work on the nest.

Thanks so much to Eastvan Girl for keeping us updated on Pa and his eaglets! Despite the tragedy of losing Lady, Pa did it once again and raised two eaglets to fledging. That's remarkable! I hope Pa has a good, restful migration and returns with another companion to start the new season.

Good Morning Everyone,
So happy to look out my window and see Pa sitting on his favourite branch.
Unfortunately my building is undergoing some repairs soon and my windows will be under tarps so my view of the nest will gone for a few months. But I am happy to be able to see Pa this morning.

Wonderful news - thanks so much for letting us know, Eastvan Girl. Keeping fingers crossed that the tarps will be gone by the time they start getting ready for chicks!

Good Morning,
Great sight at the eagle nest today. Two bald eagles - one near Pa's branch and another in the nest. Hopefully this is Pa with a new mate - perhaps that one that made a few appearances last spring. Yay!!

Once again Pa was on his branch this morning and his new friend was in the nest - so nice to see on this gorgeous fall day.
