Received email alert to check latest news from the site:

3/8/2012  ::  First Egg of the Season!
The female exhibited egg laying behavior, late in the afternoon yesterday. This morning, we have the first egg in the scrape! The egg was laid three days earlier than last year. The first and second egg should get only occasional incubation time. When the third egg arrives incubation time should increase. The full clutch will be warmed continuously until hatching begins.

2012 NESTING SEASON

Received email on latest news from nest site:

2/27/2012  ::  Nesting Season Well Underway
The resident male and female appear to be on track for another successful nesting season. The male has been observed bringing food offerings to the female and breeding activity appears to be normal. There have been reports of conflicts in the sky, possibly the unbanded male returning to challenge the resident male. At this point, it is likely that the resident male and female will drive off any interlopers. Their bond is strong and their territory is mutually valued and defended.

The unbanded male appeared at the site around November and at one point it was thought that after a conflict with the resident male that he had injured or killed him. The resident was not seen for awhile but appeared back at the site a few weeks later. There are more reports on this on the Harrisburg webcam site.
