It's good to know that snow is the norm for this nest. I'm still amazed at how these birds adapt to such different climes.

3:50 p.m.

It almost looks as if the parent is using the snow as a pillow here:

Good morning Deschutes,

Hi MystCat,
You mentioned that you were not used to seeing eagles incubate in the snow. Here is a link to last year's Deschutes nest, the 2008 - 2009 Season. Thought that you might be interested to look back and compare then with now. The link is also posted on the "First" page of this thread.

Cascade and Lady Odell are wonderful parents! I sure hope they get successful hatches after all of this snow!!

There was a parent switch just before 3:00 today. Still snowing.

I adopted the Delta2 nest!

Hi CAL04

I've done nothing but watch eagles today! It so wonderful to find the time to do that these days!

Hello eagle-watchers!

Thank you very much, CAL04, for that link to last year's forum! It was wonderful reading the posts.

As for this evening on the nest, it's snowing again and Lady O is covered in a blanket of white:

(Ugh!)
