Thanks so much for your reports, Bev - happy to see that you and Darlene are able to do some zooming!
I wanted to make sure that everyone knows that all zoomers and observers are welcome to post here - once you've registered and been approved (which may take a few hours as we're not always online), you can sign in and use the red "
Post Reply" button at the bottom left or top left of the page to make your post.
Because there are just a few of us watching at this point, it's fine with me if zoomers just post here when they are using one of the cams - and please do post if you're available to zoom - I know Bev and Darlene are happy to share!
There is also a HM zoomer thread from 2015 that could be used if this gets too confusing - whatever works for all of you is fine with me!
7:45 am
Zoomer has found an eagle! My guess is Mom because he/she looks large and sort of rounded - but the male we've been seeing is also large, so it's hard to tell!
And I apologize for the fact that only admins can add photos at present - I don't have as much space as HWF has for pictures.
And South zoomer just found three eagles perched together near the river, and one flew off, then what looked like a juvie I hadn't seen flew off (I didn't see any white), and two were still there. I didn't get a picture of that - cam was having trouble staying in focus at that distance with the wind.
7:52 am
The adult on the branch just flew off, and I think I saw her(?) fly right to left on the South cam just after she left the branch.

Hi Bev! Lots of eagles on the flats. I hope this is a good indication of what it will be like during the Eagle Festival in a few weeks!
