Eagle pairs returned
October 2, 2022
 The Southwest Florida Eagle Cameras (SWFEC) were among many of the properties damaged by Hurricane Ian.  Our beloved Eagle pair have returned & already started the process of rebuilding in their original nest tree!

Thanks Lori and Shep for the pics and videos.  Even though I'm in MN, I've been watching this nest for years!  What determination these eagles have  :)

SHEP REPORT
No power yet at the nest site.
Foxnews reported Oct. 7th that most of Florida has power back.
The ACoE rebuilt the destroyed bridge to one island, Sandibel will be next.  ( Yes - sand )   ;D
Our military work fast!

GREAT NEST PROGRESS!
Both Eagles on the power pole ( hmmm ... interesting )
Woodpecker, jay, kestrel

Wellness Check Harriet & M15 New Nest
H & M are okay. I visited the nest area today (and did Monday also). See facebook.com/wskrsnwings  for my live videos that I did through my phone service.   

 Harriet & M15 have made good progress on building a new nest in the exact spot the old nest was in the original nest tree. Hurricane IAN blew the old nest out of the tree.

Today, I saw both H & M as they watched their nest from a ways away. They will take breaks from building their new nest. Experienced eagles can build a suitable nest for eggs in 10 days. H & M  have plenty of time to rebuild as Harriet normally does not lay eggs until late November. Multitudes of birds are gathering in the nest area. And it is great to see them return like H & M did.  It was great to see then both on the power poles!

I guess eagles are God's ACoE!   :)

 Oct 9, 2022  Desiree Deliz visited the nest tree on Saturday October 8th 2022 and found Harriet and M15 squawking up a storm! They stayed about a half hour in the nest tree before they flew to their favorite lookout point - the power poles.

I began to post  - cam is live again - yesterday - then noticed it was NE FL.  sigh.  :-[
Here is wskrsnwings report (edit)

SWFEC Eagles
H & M Rebuilding With Sticks & Spats & Love
Oct 12, 2022
  I visited the nest this morning and in 2 hours Harriet added 4 sticks and M15 five sticks to the new nest they are building in the original nest tree.

Teamwork and stick placement discussions are so endearing when watching strongly bonded pair. As usually happens when I say goodbye, these two get busy again. Each brought another stick and there was a bonding attempt. Practice makes perfect. 😊

Thank you SWFEC, hosted by Dick Pritchett Real Estate, for providing & maintaining suitable trees & environment for this Bald Eagle Family. www.SWFLEagleCam.com
