First, many thanks to all, especially Lisa, for the pics. You make it clear that Mom and DM2 are very active, and we can see only a small fraction of what goes on in their life. I really hope they do not choose N3 again this year. I thought I read something a long time ago that eagles won't nest in a dead/dying tree because of lack of shade. Also, the nest is very heavy, which makes it dangerous. Does anyone know more about this?
Lisa, thanks for the great pics from yesterday! Mating behavior here as well as at the North's in the fall. Good for the eagles to strengthen their pair bonds.Similar pics of Mom's visit this morning. No fish, just a visit.
Any time Mom or DM2 or both are in camera range, it's a good day!
