---Been there and done that toilet paper thing with a puppy and a toilet paper obsessed adult cat! She was a torti but half siamese and toilet paper was what she used for her "wool chewing". Love the picture--looks like Ava had fun!!

Carolyn--Yes, I'm sure that it's way too late for an egg this year.

Currently: 7:46 nest remains empty.

DT arrived at 3:53pm with a food item Cam went to close up I still can't identify the food - probably a fish with it's head still intact

According to chat #3 landed at 3:53 with food.

Here she is at 4:01.

Sounds like eagle chatter off screen 0547

Merri
6:06 All quiet, no chatter, a little breeze.

7:52 Empty nest.

6:55pm

DT and Dad arrived at nest - DT eating a bird of some variety. Dad perched on the LB and then decided to make a try for some supper



DT let it be known she was NOT going to share


Dad backed off, turned around and then when DT lifted up, snuck a bit out. He quickly swallowed it


Nothing left - DT left and then Dad did too - empty nest again

Cam tried to find where they went. No luck but did find a couple of the photographers who appeared to have the missing eagles in their lenses

Nice picture of Shelly. Is she copyrighted?
