I am just so excited. th e female is spending the night tonight. it is dark and she is still there . you can see her silhouette
I made extra work for myself but I decided to monitor this site because it was one of my first eagle sites to watch. this and Maine. (no longer a cam at Maine.) I watched many miracles happen here after fierce snow storms, where the eagles were buried. I watched before shep. I believe Liberty was the males name before. I remember the season he was ousted. they had eggs and dirty spot we called him , would not let him or Belle back to incubate . it was heartbreak times. but we all came to love the male ( an d he was called Shep).
when i saw Belle was injured, I came over to monitor.
now this sis probably new female and I an not sure if Shep.( I would have ot see his head form above) but we have a male an d female and if you read my above posts, you will see things have been progressing. they have been mating , nest building, she ate on nest today.( I have recorder on and run it of f and take notes a some photos for proof. some people need the proof) this has been taking up a lot o f my time but something that appealed to me. I will not be able to continue monitoring at this pace but i have two cams running on my other computer right now , so as not to take away from the falcons.
fingers are crossed.
