Eagle? in the tree to the right of the bay nest.

Not seeing anyone in the bay nest......or the tree. We have not been seeing eagles around this nest much lately..........so it doesn't seem they have any eggs..............unless the nest is so deep we cannot see an adult when it is in the nest.

7:53pm......Ma just came back to the nest..........she was likely exercising her wings......hopefully maybe had a quick bite! Trooper waited as she moved a small branch. Then he got up off the eggs and left the nest.
