T40, Thanks so much for that beautiful video clip from Glen Loyd. The birds, the music, the Moon, all very calming.

Clear, chilly day. Nice sub-adult BE on the favorite branch at 11AM, with Canada geese behind. The geese all take off together on the rewind.

Couple pics from the Flyway earlier this afternoon -- Swans, geese, ducks doing their thing. Eagles gathering in Flyway trees. Lots of flying around, worth the rewind.

Sunday morning at the Flyway, not much going on. Everybody's watching.

Lovely closeups from the cam ops today.  The birds are cooperating by being fairly close to the camera & microphone, too.

The camera operators take advantage when birds are close enough to zoom in. Here's a series for trivia games or a bird science and ID class.  On the rewind about 9:30 AM.  More in next post.

Take your own, or snip from these!

Live, now, 11:00, closeups of Canada geese.

It's an eagle day at the Flyway. Great bathing action shots and lots of eagles hanging around looking beautiful and handsome all afternoon.

Flyway chat mentions that Northern Lights might be visible in Iowa and Illinois tonight, as a result of sunstorms a couple days ago. So, check your local skies, and see what the night cam views find.

Great photos STL. That downed tree is sure a popular gathering spot for the eagles.

Does that downed tree that the BEs like to perch on have a nickname, does anyone know?

Sunday, cold & a good day for resting. Tundra swans & Canada geese slept late. Sandhill cranes marched here, then marched there, then stood around. One juvie eagle watched.
