    Yes, Mr.g, we can be more diligent about posting the times, etc., of various events we observe. Thanks for your great update! I saw that the eggshell had been moved, too. I want to get a better look at the chick! It's cool that you have a separate computer dedicated to this.

    In case anyone doesn't know, Hayward is on the east side of the San Francisco Bay Area, a little south of Oakland and north of San Jose, CA. There is a campus of California State University there.

    Just checked in with her. She was preening for quite a bit. My cockatiel was preening at the same time. LOL Birds spend a lot of time taking care of their feathers!

    Then she got up and turned around. I could see something white that wasn't an egg but couldn't see any details. I guess it was a baby! She dug at the nest for awhile and is now falling asleep.

    Anne, thanks for this link. The colour going is due to the camara switching to infer-red so it can see in the dark (do not want any light suddendly switching on and scaring mummy or daddy owl do we?).

    A few years ago I was watching a live tv programme about barn owls, we were watching some baby owls that were about four weeks old. The owl expert pointed out that one was much quite small and said this one would eventually be pushed out by the bigger babies, just then the biggest turned round opened its beak and swallowed the little one whole ......... you have been warned!

    Default chick update 3:45 PM PDT

    For those looking for the chick, as of now it has moved or been moved from space one where it hatched to space three. (Three is the left side of the middle row.)

    Here's another live webcam that you might be interested in. Mr. G, you might need to get another computer... ha ha - just kidding.

    Oh how awful! Thanks for the warning, and for the explanation about the light conditions.

    Cool, Marta, thanks! Mama eagle is currently feeding her little one. Or maybe it's Papa eagle. And this one has audio, Al!

    Whoa, I just went on and the camera started moving and panning in and out and now it's on a branch filming another eagle. Someone is controlling the camera on the eagle ones. I'm waiting to see the baby owls too. Thank YOU Anne for starting this thread.

    Yea thanks alot Anne for starting this ...I've been watching these birds on and off allllll day and not getting anything done that I had planned on. It is really cool,I finally saw the baby owl. And then the one eagle brought back what look like a squirrel and starting eating it. I just hope the owls don't eat one another like someone said on one of the posts...how sad ! Oh and I quess I have Marta to thank for this also !!
