Nice videos eaglewoman. Guess he cleaned it down below the nest so all those feathers he was plucking didn't end up in the nest.

Beautiful videos eaglewoman They are soooo sweet I wish I was down there helping you fight off the bombers, er I mean mosquitos too How fortunate you were to be there when Patriot was getting dinner ready for his Lady I'm sure it was too rainy and wet to get down there tonight and it looks like we are in for more wet days. Looking forward to an egg soon!

Thanks Guys! Yes, mykitters, it was nice of Pat to deliver dinner to Libby after he had his fill! II had called Eagle Eye to tell her what was going on and I missed filming the actual delivery of the food to her. I'll try to stay more focused next time!
Do you feel like tomorrow is the day still? Geez, with this kind of rain coming down, I almost hope they wait for a dry spell to drop the first egg!

I took this scap earlier tonite and there were some strange ghost images in the nest!

These pics are from yesterday afternoon, 4Feb10. Patriot flew-in at 5:10 p.m. followed by Liberty at 5:14. Whatever the "ghosts" were, Patriot ate them. Patriot came down off the Victory branch to greet Liberty; they then both went up to the V branch and managed to mate in the rain. Liberty few away to the right followed by Patriot to the left at 5:15.

Just took a peek, and see that they've zoomed in quite a bit:


That will make it nice for seeing eggs and little chicks - but I do miss seeing if the adults are perched nearby.

Added - 1:34 pm
I see someone has arrived.


Not visible in the pic is the fish she(?) arrived with. She's now busily eating away, but not providing a very good opportunity for photos.

JudyB,

The c/u cam is very clear but I too miss the w/a cam. 3:26 p.m., no eggs yet and nobody on the nest.

Patriot arrived on nest at 5:02 p.m. PST and stayed until 5:20. He was very busy with nestorations, ate nestovers and chewed on the right tree limb a bit. He payed special attention to the nest bowl by digging with his beak and removing small sticks. Last view possible, he was on the upper rim (perhaps going up to the V branch?).

I like the fact they have the option of c/u and wide...would be nice to have a split screen though....always want more eh?
