Hi sassyk--
Beautiful pictures of the eagles and the nests. I know how valuable these nest photos can be when something is going on with the eagles--I clung to the ones we had last season when we tried to figure things out.

These will be the classic reference points I'll use whenever I'm trying to figure out where an eagle is sitting, where a starling is screaming, or which entry to the nest is Pa using!

And, they are just beautiful photos--thank you for making them and generously sharing them.

I wish Ma would have come out of the nest for you too Kay, and after all the time you spent there.....well that's the least she could have done :no:

Your pics are so clear and nice...Thanks for sharing with us

Thanks so much Elle and Ian for the great pics and videos of our beloveds

Great job Kay getting those great shots of Pa and casing out the nests and getting us some pics.

Hi Sally it’s awesome to see you back and I hope you guys can hook up at the nest. I’ll look forward to your reports also

Thank you all Ground Crew

Great work ground observers. Kay you'll be able to get a lot of pictures of ma when the egg(s) hatch as the nest will be bursting with activity and elle we love all the ground observations you guys do so we can keep a handle on whats going on front and centre. Great work guys

Also people who live in the nest area is SNOW in the forcast:question:

Very nice information, videos, and photos Kay, Elle, and Daved. Thank you for showing us the view beyond the nest. Kay those mating shots were really special, you must have been very excited to have caught those shots.

Thanks Linda. Yes it was pretty exciting. Sandragee and I watched them mating last year (on the same date). Sandra had just purchased her new camera and she was so thrilled that her very 1st pic was of Ma and Pa together

Here's a brief report from Sally (pucksma) who was at the nest at the time I wrote this. At 12:18 pm Ma flew over W. Saanich Rd., circled over the cow pasture, and flew into the nest over the Epicure property. They were both in the nest for a bit, before Pa flew out and perched below the cam branch and then flew to one of the nearby fir trees on the nest property at approx. 12:20 pm. Pa flew over W. Saanich Rd., over the cow pasture and landed in one of the fir trees above the cow pasture at approx 12:23 pm. Thanks for the call Sally

Great coverage as usual
