The Forum Has Moved!

sounds like still windy, think it's still dad on the nest, looking up and all around for mate I think, needs a break. earlier dad got up and looked around for mom, worked in bowl maybe turned the eggs, then set down on nest bowl and pulled in more grasses for warmth

358pm very windy on the nest, appears to be mom n the eggs looking around quietly. I just got in from chores and errands, be back later

dad still on the eggs I believe, is looking around himself for mom maybe

saw dad turn the eggs, clean the nest bowl. then
618pm mom arrives, waits for dad to get up and leave, she checks the eggs and lies down.

mom back now and watches dad on stump at 4 waiting to fly off, then she settles down on the eggs for the night
at 715pm mom got up to tend the eggs again, keeps staring at them at times, wonder if she'll have a third on tonight I think 2 is good, but always better to have insurance goodnight Deb and all

Morning Doreen many thanks for your observations and captures

A bold sub adult entered this nest this morning and Smitty chased it off.

Bless his heart Dad is a wonderful protector ... he did a fantastic job

Terri was watching and uploaded video footage ... here is the link

After it was chased off it returned ... but this time it sounds like Mom returns and chases the young eagle out of the tree!
