Florida Eagle cam

BREAKING NEWS!!!

I know it's a different eagle, but it is a happy eagle story. OZZIE ... of Ozzie & Harriet Fame (Southwest Florida nest) has returned from his long absence. He had been released in late-July, but hadn't been seen since. Most had given up on his returning to Harriet, and she had seemed to take on a new male. Tonight, the game changed. Ozzie is back, and he chased the other male off several times, captured on video. Not only that, but Ozzie's identity has been confirmed by the anklet he was fitted with after rehab and before release. Lots of SEDs happening tonight. EAGLE ON

(Now I kinda feel bad for FV, who has wooed her for some time now). Sheesh, I'm never happy!!

From posts on BCAW:  

Good morning, Sun. 9/20/15. It was great to see Ozzie come flying in around 7:00. But then FV followed by Harriet arrived. Ozzie and FV are fighting over the territory. That's about all I can tell you at this time.

PB/FV is fighting for the territory Harriet is not helping neither one but is arriving and leaving with PB, Ozzie has new wounds to his lt foot and his stubby pinkie talon appears to be gone and site is bleeding. No one is at the nest know, remember FV/PB doesn't know who Ozzie is,PB is just protecting the nest, he's probably think where the heck this eagle came from!

PB=FV

From FB:
Ground reports coming in that Ozzie & M15 (previously known as PB/FV) have had various altercations. It has been reported that Ozzie lost a talon but is not seriously injured. All 3 eagles are in & out of the nest area and tension is high.

Just saw that.  He should have stayed away, I don't think this is going to end well.

Whoa, FV is a boy toy, I see.  I'm glad I'm not hooked on this cam.  Sounds like it's not easy to watch right now.

Pretty Boy needs to move on and find someone closer to his own age. I hope Ozzie gets the girl (back) and they live happily ever after.

Just read this on FB:

"As many know Ozzie had not been seen in a week since he received an injury in a fight with M15 the young male that has been around Harriet since last spring. (M15 has not been seen in 4 days now)  CROW the hospital where Ozzie was treated and released from last June is on the way to pick up an injured banded eagle that has been found trapped in a barbed wire fence. Not sure of the exact details of removal (details will follow I'm sure) but someone local that posts to the site has wrapped the eagle and has a picture of him on her porch and said the injuries are covered in flies so not sure how long he may have been there. The folks on the FB site say the band # belongs to Oz so if that is the case I know they will update. Please say a prayer or think positive thoughts that they are able to successfully treat and save him..."

Poor Ozzie..

Poor guy but at least they found him.  It doesn't good for the other guy either.  And poor Harriet..sounds like she will be in trouble as well if she is on her own.

I know..M15 hasn't been seen in 5 days and a subadult has been coming to the nest the past couple days.  Poor Oz..he should have just kept on going after his release! What a mess!

Oh this just sux!! Poor Ozzie!!
