8:12 am - 8:26 am - another visit. This looks like Valor 1 again and now I’m wondering if it’s been him every time this morning. Hard for me to feel confident on my ID’g as I’m viewing from my small phone screen. If anyone has been watching and can see better to ID please do so.

This time like earlier, Valor 1 just sat around keeping an eye on things. He did focus a few time on something out across the water but I never saw anyone flying around out there.

Good Morning, Sue! I was just looking at your posts & examined your pictures. Except for the last visit, I agree with you IDs of Valor 1 & Starr, by eyes, tail, neckline, & size. Except the last one I'm not sure of. It is the tail area that is throwing me off.

Also, I just saw a video of another visit (the last visit of the day) by the Trio on the nest late yesterday afternoon by nighteagle007. I am going to put the link to it at the end of my last post from yesterday, so it will be in order.
It's a great event to get outside and enjoy nature. I find it very exciting no matter how many times I see bald eagles.

Thanks for your input on the ID's for this morning's visits. It's so hard when you can't see them on a large screen. And thanks for posting the additional visit from last night!

I've been recording off and on since I had posted about the last visit at 8:26 am and I don't think anyone else has visited, but I may have missed a little bit during that time.

3:22 pm just checking in to find one of the Trio eagles in the nest. Not sure who it is though but maybe Starr.

Hi Sandy! I was recording and will upload that video shortly. All three of our Trio were on the nest during the last 30 minutes or so.

3:05 pm - here's the first s'cap of when our Trio began to come into the nest....Love seeing two of them coming in at the same time....one has a clump of nesting material....at least that's what I think that is....I haven't gone through the recording so still need to do that and ID our eagles.

After reviewing the video I am pretty sure that was Valor 2 that came in with the clump of nesting material, and Valor 1 came in from the top left at the same time.
Here is Valor 2 working on a stick

And they both finally look up so we can see their front neckline....Valor 1 on the left, Valor 2 on the right

I forgot to mention that I had been recording most of the afternoon and had not seen anyone come to the nest between 8:26 am and 3:05 pm. Of course I could have missed some time so if anyone had seen a visit during that time please feel free to post about it.
