Harrison Mills Observation and Discussion Nest thread ..2018--2019

[Yolande]

Dad spent some time preening while Lady worked away at moving branches..

[Yolande]

Dad came back into the nest and there was some more pecking when he bagan moving things around - Lady went to the runway this time..

[Yolande]

She came back into the nest when Dad lay down - and made him get up - too funny!

[Yolande]

Both eagles worked together for a little while, but Dad did go back to the runway and watched Lady work from there...

[Yolande]

He flew off at one point, but was soon back...with a branch..

[Yolande]

More pecking, I'm afraid...lol and Dad went to the runway.

Lady decided to go to the ICB and Dad returned to the nest and lay down...

[Yolande]

Dad was up and working when Lady flew off at 10:53am

Dad flew off at 10:56am

No visits since then...

[Yolande]

I had a quick look around on the NPTZ and don't see them perched along the river or out on the flats at Mom's perch...but, there is a jay..

ADD: I did notice that neither Dad nor Lady has a full crop - they are looking very flat!

Hi again - and thank-you, Bev...

Just here and I see Dad is in the nest working away moving branches..

He hopped onto the ICB ...will just hop on the cam and move it a touch..

[Yolande]

Off he flew at 4:16pm

I checked the treetops at Dad's perch and he's not there - or to the right of the lone tree.

[Yolande]

From the DVR:

Dad arrived at 4:03pm with a nice branch and placed it..

[Yolande]

Lady arrived at 4:04pm

and got right to work moving a branch in the rails...

[Yolande]

Cont:

The cam skipped forward and Lady is now on the runway - Dad working at the top of the nest..

Lady flew off from the runway at 4:08pm and continued working in the nest until he flew off at 4:16pm.

[Yolande]

Dad is back at 4:30pm

Busy moving branches - then trying out the nest bole..

[Yolande]

Now back to moving a branch...

[Yolande]

Lady arrived at 4:36pm, picked up the branch Dad was moving - and moved it herself...lol

Lady digging in the nest bole..

[Yolande]

Dad moved to the runway..

Lady working on a branch [big!]

[Yolande]

Lady still moving branches - Dad is relaxed on his perch..

Dad flew off at 4:42pm...

[Yolande]

It looked like Lady was going to fly off, but she went to the BSB..

[Yolande]

She turned on the BSB and flew off to the right at 4:53pm..

Nice visit!..

Cam is on the nest ...please post if you see anything! THX
