PL thank you for the updates ask Chickens if he can build some supports
for that dead tree since he is very familiar with this new tree
Your scaps are awesome too! I rather like this new
location too can see the parents much better. I should send the parents
some hay for the nest.

Hi Diana Awesome sunset

818 am

Changing of the guard; was too cute a nudge was required
to get the adult to move off the eggs so the other one could take
over incubating so

Great scap, Debs! Haven't been watching much, but a severe storm moved over the nest around 3:30 PM. One of the Chat members, OkieMo caught these scaps of the rainbow.


The male is at the top of the tree in the 2nd scap!

Here's a scap from after the storm. The male and female are sitting side by side to the left of the nest. The heart-shaped sun reflection on the right drew some ohs and ahs (The big glob below the Eagles is actually a rain drop!)

Just before 5:00 p.m. CST,
While one adult was incubating, the wide angle showed 2 eagles flying from right to left in the not too distant skyline. It looked like one eagle was being chased (wish I had gotten a s'cap). Soon, the 2nd adult came to the nest and started trilling. Both adults went up to the branch above the nest for a minute or so, then flew off together. Soon after, an adult was back on the nest incubating.

Cal , I started recording right after 5PM, after they started getting agitated. They both took off from the tree at 5:04PM, and one circled back around and came to cover the eggs.

Hi PL,

Glad you were watching. Just guessing but think that maybe Juvies might be inclined to frequent the area this time of year. I have been watching a sky cam in Libby, MT, today and there was a Juvie in the same tree with 2 adults. Hmmm....

Need to keep an eye on this one. Very exciting!

Cal, that could be a real possibility since some have been spotted in the area

Last nest exchange of the night at sundown, after yet another storm and high winds


But he did not go far...he is off to the left and down a bit. He was still with her as the screen went dark
