7:52pm........Both are still on the tower together. Wonder who they are? The one on the right just showed some white.......it is an adult. The one on the left flew off but came back a moment later to land on the right side of the tower.

8:17am..........And again............Adult off and adult returns. I think there is a 3rd someone flying around and each time we see an adult leave the tower, they are giving chase. The puzzle is just who is the "odd eagle out"? Thought it was Ma on the evergreen trees before, but it makes sense that it is Ma and Pa together on the tower. Would they allow a stranger eagle to come to the evergreen trees to perch so close to the nest??? Or was that Ma on the evergreens as I first thought, and this pair is neither Ma or Pa? A mystery. :puzz: :chin:

There is no one on the evergreen trees, or in the nest tree that I can see.

8:37pm.......Ma was seen on her fav. perch at 20:23pm..............Both those others are still on the tower at this time.

One of the adults on the tower left at 20:28pm.......

The remaining one on the tower left at 20:38pm.......

I think we have to conclude that the 2 on the tower were not our pair...............Ma is here at the tree and the others have flown off. And it was Ma on the evergreen earlier.
