here are the screen caps to go with stim's great report... from another adorable morning exchange!




hi judy b!

OMG, can you even BELIEVE this morning? i came on a little before 8, and left cam on...keep hearing them come back... just got a bunch of scaps...i'll go see if i managed anything good enuf to post.

REALLY fun to watch them together. even their beaking is precious! i wasn't sure how i'd feel without baby JET,

but since this pair is new to everyone (i think).... it's exciting to 'get to know' them thru their nestorations exchanges!


have a nice walk with hubby, stim.
and judy b, hope that noreaster that just happened did not cause damage.

Hi All!

Beautiful screen captures of these delightful eagles. It's great to see them in action long before nesting time.

As far as having one on the branch and seeing the nest too, that is a new view correct?

this HUMONGOUS branch seemed to cause a bit of a rift between our 2 loveliE's.


P1: back off baby!
P2: i don't think so....



... i think we need a time out....

oh, hi, sweet carolyn! (bleu)

what an amazing morning that was! most of my captures weren't very good, so i only had these 3
....i think i have one more...

last misc ones from this super cool, active morning!



eagle incoming



making a statement



oh yeah????

bye for now!

What a wonderful morning of s'caps and descriptions. These 2 do seem to be very enthusiastic about getting the nest in ship-shape.

We are fortunate to have this fine view of them and I can't wait to see what we get when the new cam is ready.

2:50pm squawky call nearby.


3:24pm other than a couple of other calls that may or my not have been an eagle, there is no activity at the nest.

It may be starting to rain... we were predicted to have heavy rain starting in the morning.. but it is late getting here.

OUT

Thursday November 3, 2011


8:00 am Pa on the nest moving a few branches around. Looking about for Ma ,moves a few more and in a short time is gone.

good morning, planet!

right on time....fun to see that (brief) 8am visit from parent...!


you called the eagle PA.... i have NEVER been able to tell any of the eagles apart on any nest.
can you, or anyone, look at these pics and help me learn to identify them?

the ONLY thing i can see is that the TAILS are different on these 2 eagles.
but i have no clue who's who.






thanks so much!

9:00 am Pa back in on the nest with a huge pile of moss like stuff in his beak stays but a moment and is gone again.


Newbie this is the same pair as last year. Ma has a white spot on her left shouder(front) and is broader in stature. Pa has a narrower body and a more slender build. After watching for awhile you will figure it out. I still get them wrong from time to time. Females usually have a broader beak area too. I don't know what else to tell you. Ma's legs are a little shorter as well. Maybe someone with more knowledge can let you know.

and Good Morning
