FINALLY I caught them both at home!



And a look at Rhea Mae's band...I always worry this time of year...

Meanwhile...boy is she pretty!

Do we know for certain if Mr. is banded or un-banded?

Since I gather this is the new dominant pair in this territory, when Beauty is released back into the wild it would probably be best if she didn't return here?  Since Mariah returned after her release at Montezuma (as I recall) it would seem to me Beauty would have to be released further away to discourage her return.  Any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Mr. is definitely unbanded.  I wouldn't be too quick to say they're (Mr. & U) a pair at all, let alone dominant.  As we saw last year with Mr. T, as soon as Archer came back Mr. T was gone.  Unity was bonded with Archer last year, so I would guess the same would happen this year whether it's Beauty or Unity in possession of the territory.  Assuming Archer returns-still some time before he's actually due.

As far as what might happen when Beauty is released it's anyone's guess.  Only the DEC knows what their thinking might be when the time comes to release her.  Will she fight Unity for the downtown territory?  Will she take over Unity's spot at KP?  Only time will answer those questions.

She's workin that pellet. If that was what she was doing!

They'll also make a move like that when they're moving food from the crop to the stomach.

Nest Update

Special News

Our Eagle Cam Web Log has a new post for Monday that explains the current status of the nest. The blog entry also explains why the cam is currently offline.

Eagles will eat dead stuff - I saw one haul off a dead fox (road kill).  It was a fresh kill. 

I assumed so but was not sure - thanks, Janet! Get OUT about the fox! That prey item in the film sure did look like an "ex" to me.

NX from Norfolk, currently in rehab at WCV, was apparently hit by a car while eating roadkill deer.

Mr T and new guy today. NO?

T on left

The 2 new males!  Last week and today

Same guy as last week.  Not Mr. T.  In my opinion.

Sending healing thoughts your way!

Both at nest box.

Dana reports that both are on Mercury right now.

He looks bigger than the guy we saw last week.

Someone is home at the Sheraton.
