an eagle extravaganza!!!  :o

I think I count 17, T40.

I thought it was 17 then saw T40's post.  They won't stay still! :)

LOL! I thought it was 16 and then saw Lori's post. After looking at MpMom's and Lori's snapshots, I'm pretty sure one of the "branches" in my snapshot is actually the "missing" 17th eagle. ;D Just having fun watching this cam and knowing other people are amazed by the same things I am. ;)

One thing I love about this cam is how you can see the feet and talons of the eagles so distinctly.

This camera helps us see the plight of juvenile BEs. Hunting/fishing isn't always easy for them.

The camera watched a juvie (top of the screen) in the backwater looking for food. Then it followed the juvie till it came across 2 others who were finishing a meal of a small bird. There were a couple scuffles. The original juvie managed to grab a mere morsel.
