Hi Dave HI Starr

I did get a scap of the eggs today during an exchange between Dad and Mom

Nice view of the eggs

in the second photo the adult doesn't look like a bald eagle. it's weird to see one with a reddish looking beek. nice to see them working together. i thought after the storm the eggs would be burried in snow and they would have to dig them out of just lay on them and eventually there body heat would melt the snow until they hit eggs. i guess the adult was incubating them before the snow starting to fall.

Dave...In that pic the shadows on the nest are playing tricks. That's Dad and for sure he has a white head and a nice yellow beak!

Mary it is funny how the light and shadows can
play tricks on us at times

Dave that was definitely not the best picture of Dad; he is very handsome
so that picture does not do him justice!

Blackwater home site has posted a video of the laying of the second egg; if you would like
to watch this video click on the link below then click on the purple text on the left hand side of the

A view of the eggs earlier this morning.



More snow on the way for this family. Lets hope they can
get thru this one more time

Beautiful view of the eggs, Debs
Yeah, I heard another 20 inches of snow expected again in some parts of the east. Let's hope for the best.
