Thank you JudyB,

Oh my, I was so happy to see them this morning when the cam came back up.
5:54 p.m. EST, Savannah has something on her beak.


ETA: Oops, got ahead of myself and forgot to load the pic.

Feb 1 Images from about 1:00 to 2:00 pm EST

I just discovered this site a few days ago. Then the snow storm struck and no cam. Today is the first time I have been able to watch it. I am really impressed with the quality of the images. I was surprised to note there are at least 4 adult eagles in this enclosure - and what a superb enclosure it is. It sure doesn't seem to bother the mated pair that the others are there.

The images will be in three posts due to the limitation of 3 per post

Dad brought in a new stick.


Trying to place the new stick


Hmmm! Puzzle! How to arrange this thing

Part2 of 3

OK I'll just stick it over at the side



Mom returned and took over brooding. Dad still fussing with the big stick

Mom: "What are you going to do with that thing"



Dad: "OK I'll move it"

Part 3 of 3

Mom: "Watch what your doing with that thing"


Mom: "I am out of here"


Mom: "Heaven Help Me!"................... Dad: "Mumble Grrrumble No Appreciation rrrumble"

So very much, BET,
Absolutely wonderful observations and pictures!

This is a quote from CRC on (FB) today which answers a question for us as to whether or not Savannah and Derek's nest is on a raised platform.

"Carolina Raptor Center The aviary doesn't have large enough trees for nesting as eagles build some of the largest nests in the wild. Savannah and Derek are both injured birds and prefer this nesting box instead of the raised platforms that are also in their aviary."

:question: So, we now would like to know if their "nesting box" is at least somewhat off the ground.

Wonderful pictures and storyline BET! I was watching him with that stick and wincing every time he approached the nest. I know Dads are actually very careful - and eggs are very hard - but it worries me!

I notice that they actually answer questions posted on their Facebook page - though I think we've found the answer to a number of our questions already. We should probably add the link to the first post (unless it's already there - guess I'd better check after dinner!).

BET awesome narration...too funny and I thought the nest was on the ground all along....didn't look raised to me.....I sure hope they have some success this year too!

Wonderful scaps!
