Empty Nest syndrome???

12/7/2017

0 Comments

 
Good evening to everyone from "the Nest" in Sidney, BC

This afternoon, just before my 2nd radio interview with Pamela McColl on CFAX 1070 , it hit!  What hit, you ask? ... Well the fact that from here on, life at and around the nest will be quite different.
 When I arrived around 12:30 PM, I could not see the remaining Eaglet but later realized the last one to fledge is still  just branching around the nest.    I have to say, the hit for me was an empty feeling to realize that some visits in the future will be very pale in comparison to the past 4 weeks of daily visits.   (Today is week 4 to the day for my documenting this amazing quirk of Nature)

And this is the first day I did not actually see LittleEagle, though I did hear the little creature  from 2 locations  around 3:30 PM after an Adult Eagle arrived nearby.
There were also several flights around the nest by the 2 juvenile Eagles and its amazing to watch them gracefully  glide past overhead and make pretty decent  landings in the treetops.
I will be back at the Nest again in the morning , as David Hancock and Christian Sasse are reportedly going to be on location.  
It will be interesting to hear Davids thoughts on what is  the next likely scenario for LittleEagle.
 I will be adding a few images shortly from today... Hope you enjoy them...
​All the very best to you and a special thanks to Pameal McColl for sharing the airwaves today with LittleEagle.... TerryV


On my way home from Sidney this afternoon, I saw an adult RedTailed Hawk , stopped my vehicle and managed a couple of images in the bright light.  I'm guessing from the size, this is a mature RedTail female... These are quite large cropped photos, as she didn't allow me to get too near.  (Could this beautiful bird be LittleEagles Mom???)
