Glad you caught that, Bev! I saw it, but wasn't fast enough to try for a screenshot.

Well, the good news is that several of the presets are now closer to where we usually move the cam after using a preset to get in the general area. The bit of a learning curve is that I can't move presets up and down on the list - and I thought I could do the same thing by adding them all, even the ones that didn't change - but they ended up going in randomly, and I don't see an easy way to fix that.

Here's the old list of presets:


Here's what I did:

Home and Nest + Branches were very similar - I adjusted Nest + Branches so it shows more of the branches and less of the trunk of the tree, and named it Home (deleting Nest + Branches from the list).

Nest Close replaces Eggs - it's a closer look at the nest bowl, though not as close as Eggs

Mom Perch By River was renamed and is zoomed in a bit more and centered

Flats CU added (area behind Mom's perch)

12th Green Stump pulled back some

N Cam-Greens-River removed (it was almost identical to North Cam Perch)

Echo Lake - Nite Roost changed to Nite Roost

And here's the new list:




If anyone has suggestions for additional areas to add, or would like things fine-tuned a bit, please let me or Bev know. Thanks!


Added - I'm off the cam for now.

Thank you JudyB for all you do!

On the NPTZ Cam....
Mom's perch is empty
7:22am

Eagles trilling

7:24 One adult in babysitting tree, another one arrived and the first one moved to the tree to the right of the babysitting tree and then it flew off. The other adult is still in the babysitting tree hidden in the branches. This adult flew from our nest tree I think!

Good Morning Darlene......and thanks for spotting the eagles
7:48am
Two eagles trilling
7:49am
Mom's perch is empty!

Good morning Bev. I believe this is Ma in the babysitting tree. There was trilling from above the nest and then she flew over to the babysitting tree and in my opinion ousted the one that was sitting there. She flew at it twice and then it flew to the tree to the right and then flew off from there.

7:50am
Thanks Darlene and that is very interesting and I think you are right !

I am still hearing two eagles and can't find them
7:55am
More trills?two eagles

7:50 OMG. I believe we had a male just land in the nest. Ma is still in the babysitting tree. Lots of chatter between the two of them when he landed on the nest. If I can I will grab a video of him!
