Bird Cams Around the World

OMG what a GIGALO he is

OK Norfolk Dad, pick ONE! The mods were talking last night about Dad and this situation. I think it may be like goldilocks and the three bears LOL?? One too cold, one too hot, and finally one just right? LOL the only bad thing is they said Dad may not have had a strong bond with ANY of them since that takes time, and he went from one to another. It could play out that he does not create a big enough bond with any of these females, and has to find a new one altogether. Hopefully if that happens, he can do it before egg laying time is up. They said we could end up with NO eggs this season if he cant choose in time. Also, with so many 5 yr olds around the garden right now, there will be more fighting between eagles and nests happening. This situation has thrown us a real curve ball, anything can happen including what happened at the West End nest a few years back - 2 females on the same nest! So expect anything to happen, and yet it is all very exciting.

I saw a news article saying that WVEC/DGIF commented that with the original pair, being territorial, they kept other eagles AWAY from the garden and airport, and the present situation seemed to be drawing MORE eagles to the area. In light of the present DGIF and airport discussions regarding the hazards of eagles/plane strikes, this is of concern to them...but their article as before, kind of says there is nothing they will do about it, i.e. push for nest to be removed, or eagles. So why do they even have to put all this out there, the DGIF/Airport people? Just to stir the brew and cause drama?

Anyway, lets hope Dad finds his true love. This is so much a flashback to Pale Male after Lola's death, it is shocking/amazing? to see it happen to Dad.

Here is a pic of contender mom #2. She is larger than number 3 who has the dirty tail. We cant see if Dad is on a branch in the nest tree nearby her or not. Someone posted noontime today he was on the other nest's tree, where this camera cannot zoom to. Am curious to find out if #2 is holding out at this nest by herself, hoping to draw Dad in, or if he is accompanying her. It is going to be very interesting to say the least!



I like this one and her face is beautiful. The dirty bird looks kinda mean in the face lol. Also being bigger, this one would be better to defend her eggs! She is a real beauty. Maybe Dad will figure that out LOL

EDIT: One of the mods just stated that Dad is on the branch. Woops! Hard to tell w/o the 2 together, since #2 is so white like him. No wonder this eagle is so beautiful, if its Dad that would explain it!

Reese took a few beautiful captures from the cam today:

I really miss Mom.

A few close ups of handsome dad in the nest today. #3 was there for a while, and she seems to be the favorite among viewers too.
