Good morning. Here is a picture I took through my telescope. The eagle pair have been active in their nest and when I looked just now they were both near each other. It's hard to get a good quality photo this time of year and through a telescope.
This one I cropped and lightened.

We were about half way down the beach at Mission Point on a low tide. I don't remember it as a super low tide, just averagely low :)

But could be a useful alternative viewpoint with Margs summer view being blocked by the lilac tree. :(
Hi Heather I was sitting here recently and thinking that I should tell you about this :) when the tide was out Earl and I would walk out at Davis Bay on the exposed sand and we saw the nest tree from that vantage point. I believe I took a picture nice a long time ago. You can also see Mount Baker!

Marg, what a lovely memory about walking out onto Mission Point with Earl :rh:

Mission Point is such a great spot for watching eagles and other birds. Plus Mt Baker .... on a clear day of course!

And I love that romantic picture of Ma and Pa at the nest.

Took this picture a couple of days ago. It was quite sunny.


Took the last one earlier today.

Any time of day in particular that they are there? I visited on Feb 3 around 3 but found no one at home.

They are there throughout the day when I look, very early in the morning too but maybe to early for you to visit Sandra. Tomorrow, I'll try to alert you when I see them. (Do you want me to phone or email?)

Email is fine Marg. I'm in my fleecies most days, don't go out much. I will be travelling past the nest later Thurs afternoon. Depending on weather, I'll nip into the neighbourhood with my camera. :luck:

ok Sandra I'll check the nest early afternoon.
Here they both are at the top of the tree around 8am this morning. Not a very good picture.

It is a good picture Marg considering how far away that nest is, weather conditions overcast at present. Promising to see them perching together close to the nest. :thumlft:

Yes. This afternoon "through the telescope" I saw one in the nest but sitting high, I keep looking. I did see them both earlier. :)
