Will check the age counts and expert estimates on fledging dates to get the range and be sure before I post here.  I suspect that fleding should take place at earliest next week, though but I rather suspect the week after (week of July 7th) ...

Will also post information on what kind of help and when we will need help in the first week as soon as I've worked out some of the logistics in my head, so probably by the weekend.  And yes, I'll be taking names at that time.

It is that time of the dark for the new thread ... the weather today is suppose to be chick-friendly - sunny, wind west (blocked by the Hotel) 20 km/h early int he afternoon with a high of 28c.  Heck, basically the same weather through to Monday ...

Ah yes, the power I have..... love it but use it judiciously, and most often, only for a birdie reason.

Cause, as we all know, the birdies come first  ;D ;D

I can see it now.  A chain of arm-locked bird-patrol wine-sippers blocking traffic anywhere near the hotel, and BccS with a cop by the moustache explaining to him that "No, we are NOT moving along....are weeeee"     :o

Happened on an interview with TPC just a little while ago - was looking for another station and came up with a bit from the banding. Couldn't miss that chick getting its bands! Missed the first part, so don't know when it was done, other than obviously after the banding.

Thanks, pam. :D  Again today when I looked out the window, I could see a white circle (head) above the ledge -- they're getting so big!  
Hey, Liz, I'm thinking you'll be seeing more and more of them from your vantage point very soon !

this afternoon? Sounds like a word that needs to be added to the Phanatics dictionary! ;D

Yes, I love that word, and it is used often in the Bald Eagle Cam Forum.  Those eagle juvies have BIG wings to flap.

It's in the dictionary now.
