Oh, ick. I hope he's feeling better soon. I didn't see it being moved either, and just now, the cam didn't want to load on my computer in any reasonable amount of time. So will check back later. I need to get busy glazing some pottery, which I've been procrastinating.

The mom picked it up a couple minutes ago and she was rearranging the nest materials. Now it's even harder to make out the details. She's staring at it a lot.

Anyone notice the numbers at bottom about how many people are viewing the web cam for the eagle nest --30,000 at some times. Wow, what an audience momma eagle has!

She is putting on quite a show. BTW, I like your new avatar, drz, and assume it is one of the photos you mentioned taking in the park or at the lake the other day. I'm assuming that's an egret. Someone mentioned white herons, but I don't think it was you.

[Sangye]

Yeah, and a million total viewers. She's a popular gal.

Wow, they are showing closeups of the eagles right now.

I see a closeup of the nest itself. And with the wind blowing it, it's messing with my vertigo! Aaaah!

Yeah, someone was experimenting and must have left the camera for a few minutes... it's back to normal now. Doesn't look too windy at the moment.

I see what you mean about the vertigo... it's pretty windy again and everything is moving. The 3 chicks are being fed and looking pretty good today. Not bigger than yesterday, though. I saw one of the baby owls earlier and it was huge!

Barn owl update 3:30PM west coast time: The site has just been updated to confirm that 4 owlets have hatched and the 5th is expected today! There is also a new link to a video of a chick hatching, which my old computer had a little trouble with.
