The cam at French Creek is down - neither Ken nor I can log into it directly. There are quite a few power outages on Vancouver Island, but nothing in that general area.
It looks as if it froze at 1:37:42, and went black a few seconds later. I'm not sure what resources we have there to check it out, but there may be folks from the Save Estuary Land Society or Friends of French Creek who could check it out.
We'll post more when we have more information.

Thanks, Bill! Ken also noticed, and notified me, though I'm a bit slow posting.

Cam is back! Unfortunately no one is on the perch tree, though there were some visits earlier today.
6:06 pm
Cam is focused on the water and the edge of the nest for the night.
Good night, everyone!

My apologies, it seems to be working fine.

The problem seems to be somewhat intermittent, Bill. The cam is not responding well at the moment - I tried moving it to the perch to see if it was light enough for that and it went black for a minute or so. I brought it back to the nest - and it took another minute to respond. I've logged out of the cam, but the signal is still not back to normal. I think there's an internet issue at the site - and hope it will be resolved in the morning.
This is what it should look like if the signal strength picks up enough to show it:

This is what I'm getting at the moment. I can see the clock moving but can't begin to guess what it's saying

It's better now, but I'm reluctant to try moving it. Maybe we'll see some squirrels....

Definitely possible - though we've been leaving the cam showing at least part of the nest most nights, and haven't seen any activity, so I'm guessing the owl has moved on. But maybe....

The camera seemed to be working better when I tried logging in this morning, so I moved it to the perch tree for the day.

Beautiful light - and two eagles!

The one on top flew off. And then an adult arrived up top - not sure if it's the same one.
That one left - and it looks like a similar sized eagle arrived, so may be the same one back again.
As far as I can tell by quickly scrolling through the dvr, the one on the lower branch has been there the whole time since my earlier post.
