JC 1965 1,528 #103 Posted February 22, 2016 Thanks for the pics Craig. I was starting to wonder if there was going to be a second egg. Can't wait to see those little fellows hatch. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 35,735 #108 Posted February 24, 2016 I don't know who is on the egg now , but they look like they could use some sunshine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #109 Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) If you suffer from motion sickness... better not tune into the nest today. Wind/hail storm has the tree rock n rollin... and poor Momma hanging on for dear life. Edited February 24, 2016 by AMC RULES Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #110 Posted February 24, 2016 Loud thunder boomers moving through the area now Seems Mommas in for a long night tonight. Just watched high winds there just about blow her, and the nest out of the tree just now. WOW! What a storm...hang on Momma!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,735 #111 Posted February 25, 2016 The high winds have passed, but it's still pouring. A lot of trees and barns have blown over,. Mommas still hanging on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,735 #112 Posted February 25, 2016 She survived the tornado .....but the nest is a mess. 20 MPH winds today should dry things out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #113 Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Looks like that nest really took a woopin'... should be lots of rebuilding going on there today. Edited February 25, 2016 by AMC RULES Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,735 #114 Posted February 25, 2016 Poppa just left the nest and the eggs are not covered. I wonder if that rotted limb across the center of the nest fell on Momma last night? It appears to be about the diameter of the eggs and 3-4 ' long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 35,735 #120 Posted February 27, 2016 Yep, a cool 28F, but the wind finally laid down and the sun is warming Momma's back. Craig, do you have any details on a multiple eagle kill on the Eastern Shore ? I heard this last night at the Red Lion ELKs club, but can't find any details to confirm.

Ed Kennell 35,735 #122 Posted February 27, 2016 Thanks Craig, Sounds like poisoning. That could, and should, be costly for someone. 13 X 100G= 1.3M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #123 Posted February 28, 2016 The changing of the guard last night... ...and early this morning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #124 Posted February 28, 2016 Now that they've finally got that beam of wood moved out of the center of the nest... I think it clearly shows just how much of the nest was lost/blown away during Wednesday nights storm. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
