I thought our eagle was getting ready to leave the first pole but they are still there.

As I was bringing the cam back to the nest I took one last look at the evergreen tree and there is a visitor. Looks too small to be an eagle, so I'm thinking it's a hawk.

Time for me to go. I am off the cams now. Everyone have a great Saturday!

Was looking at the archives but they don't seem to be working, but the thumbnails are there. From the rollback it looks like at around 9:25 am one of our eagles came in and perched on this branch and flew off less than a minute later.

9:34 am - from the rollback - Pa looked around for a couple minutes and then flew up to the branch. I haven't seen any other visits to the nest since then and up until 10:35 am.

This beautiful bird is still visiting the nest. Heard a bit of eagle chatter and checked the nest tree but did not see our eagles.
