In the pics in the last post I was wondering if there was food under all that mantling or what. Looking at the pics if there was some food it was not much. And it was gone quickly. Here are three more pics from the visit this morning.




the juvie laying down is the same one that was mantling.....

Yesterday beginning at 1p.m. the still cam was no longer operating. This morning yesterday's pics are still viewing. The cams have been on a month and a half longer than stated on the site. I will continue to check the cam status.

This has been a wonderful season at St Vrain. Bev, Carolyn, Cal04, Debs, Mary F., Castor, and Judy B it was fun to share it with you.

Soar free KC and Banner, eat well, and have a long life in beautiful Colorado.

Thank you, Donna! You did a wonderful job on this thread this season. I'm already looking forward to next year!! It's always so sad for me when they turn the cams off for the season!! Yes we certainly want KC and Banner to have a long and healthy life....with lots of little bobbleheads!!

It was really sad for me to finish off the Decorah thread for the year! I will miss those beautiful, amusing triplets that were raised there this season!!

Donna ~ Thank you for the great job you did reporting on this nest ~ Wish i could get this cam ! WIshing KC and Banner a long and happy life ! May they soar high and free and have food a plenty . Looking forward to another season at this nest !!

Donna, Thank you for the incredible reporting on this nest. I love the names K.C. and Banner and the story about how you chose them! I look forward to next year with new eaglet and hopefully less snow.
hugs and love,

Donna :hello: It was a truly wonderful season and this family were so dang easy to fall in love with I particularly loved your way of communicating your observations with us and your sense of humor and sunshine was so appreciated. We always managed to have a chuckle or a belly laugh with you. I wish the family well :nod: (with a wee lump in my throat) and a long life with food aplenty too. I truly look forward to next season with you and the rest of our wonderful family that gathered here this season.

I sure hope they upgrade to a live cam with sound next season~~talons crossed.

Donna,

Thank you so much for taking us through the 2010 nesting season at Fort St. Vrain with sassy KC, Banner and their parents. Outstanding!

Am very much looking forward to the '11 season at St. Vrain. Have just been going back through the daily pix with joy and

Friends of St Vrain eagles

Seeing the eagles back at Sidney makes me wish this cam was up now also. I just did a quick look back at this season and can not wait for the new season to begin, but that is really months away.

A question also......I notice that some of the nests are archived and the new season has been readied. Is that going to happen here too once the cam is up again in late January????

I checked the raptor resource site several weeks ago and there were no new notes there about the eagles. FYI
