 ;D Hard to spot  ;) but  Eagle is there.   Seems to be a favorite perch-just wish the cam was  viewing another  few inches to the right.

Sky & Star have been on the move.
Star (who spent the fall in central Wis.) has made it back to the Mississippi - after almost 4 weeks of no contacts - was last reported on Sunday (18th), on the Wapsipinicon, just north of the Alcoa nest and working south.
Sky has moved north (first report in 4 days) on the 15th spending time on Carlyle Resevoir straight E of St. Louis.
Both transmitters reported low batteries on their last communication.  This is the cost of using a smaller backpack - insufficient light to recharge the battery at this time of year and cloudy weather.

Oldguy, thank you for the kids report ;D
Wish Star would move closer to the WI/MN border where I am or maybe I will see Sky when we head to Missouri ;D

Happy New Year to all here - looks like Amy has started the transition to 2017 threads.

The last update from Alcoa was on Christmas Day.
Sky was still down in Illinois on Carlyle Resevoir.
Star was still on the Wapsipinicon River between Dewit and McCausland.
M & D have been working on & off on the nest

Thinking that the 2017 thread should change title to reflect the change of name for the Cam website.

oldguy, thanks for the update.  :)

MpMom, nice s'cap... and the sun is shining there in your pic!  :D  P.S.  I see you updated the thread title to indicate the new name change from "Alcoa" to "Arconic."  :)   And thanks for leaving the "Alcoa" in parentheses in the thread title, for people like me who still may look for that word to find this nest, or still think of this nest as "Alcoa" - and also for historical reasons since this thread contains posts for previous years when this was still referred to as "Alcoa."   :)   :D
