One more rolling of the egg
She turns and then lays back down
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
6:42 am - Good Morning Delta 2 Watchers! I am in on the cams. Ma has been calling out for Pa to come relieve her.....or bring breakfast.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Pretty morning sky
No one on the evergreen tree
No one home at the neighbor's tower or pole
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
No one on the far right tower/pole
We have a little one on the center tower, hawk maybe
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
6:49 am - Ma all up in a roar
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
She flew up to the branch leaving the egg alone
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
6:52 am - Ma flew back down to the nest
Note that this is Pa in the nest.....rollback isn't working on the E Cam and I had the W Cam off the nest for a couple minutes and by the time I got this s'cap it was only Pa on the nest.

7:00 am - Pa was calling out.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
So, because the rollback is not working properly for either cam really at this point, I am keeping both cams on the nest and will have to grab s'caps directly from the zoomer cam to post/document. Hoping I don't miss the 2nd egg. Well, obviously with Pa on the nest at this point, there shouldn't be another egg just yet, lol.
7:04 am - Ma must be here, on the Delta Port pole

The very precious egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
7:22 am - Pa enjoying his time on the egg with the little birdies chirping nearby
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
7:29 am - Pa trying to break off some of the greenery
Pa loves to put stuff on his back I guess
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread

Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread

Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
7:42 am - Ma is still on the Delta Port pole
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
7:42 am - Pa is up and tending to the egg. Digging a little to soften things up
Then rolling the egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Pa softening the area around the edge
And the egg just before Pa lays down to incubate the egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
7:58 am - Pa calling out
Ma still out on the Delta Port pole. Didn't realize that I caught two birds flying down on the left side of the pole.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
8:04 am - Pa up and moving and rolling the egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
8:05 am - Pa looks like a little present here. Such a cutie pie!

Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
8:23 am - Pa is up again and rolling the egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Close ups of Pa's right side of beak & eye
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Close ups of Pa's left side of beak & eye. His beak is healing well.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
8:41 am - Pa got up and started vocalizing and then flew off the nest
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Pa came flying back towards the tree, and it was weird but I thought I saw him go high up in the tree, then another eagle seemed to come from off the front side of the nest and land on the branch....which is Pa, so there may have been two eagles.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
8:43 am - Pa flew off the branch and into the nest and went right to the egg.
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
Pa all settled down on the egg
Re: Delta2 2017 - 2018 Observation and Discussion Thread
And right before all this happened with Pa going off the nest, I had just so happen to take the E Cam out to the Delta Port Pole, and Ma was there, but I didn't catch a s'cap because Pa was starting to make noise & I brought the cam back to the nest. I went to the rollback and it somewhat helped.
8:40 am - Ma was there, and then the rollback jumped a few seconds so I didn't actually see her fly off.
