I think they're feeling restless. They seem to be turning the egg more often. Rearranging the nest. Well, maybe it's just me.  |

The sitting eagle has been acting very restless this afternoon.
It now has it's wings spread out like it's raining, but it's not raining.
I'm excited.

It takes the chick a long time to peck its way out of the egg. While this is happening, there is noise coming from the egg - sometimes even peeps and the egg tends to move around on its own. The parents know what is coming and DO tend to get restless.

How many eagles are in the nest right now? It looks like I see two heads, but i can't tell. Do you have a circle going round and round in the middle of your picture of the nest?

Yes, I have the circle also. It's irritating. I beleive it's a problem with the Outdoor Channel site.
There is one egg, and one parent currently on the nest. I have not seen them change places since
I've been online, about 3 hours.

Yes, the dreaded "toilet flush" is on my screen. too. I believe it is a problem on their end. so far, one eagle on the nest. Not much happening.

who's watching today, besides me? I was busy this morning - took DD to the San Juan Capistrano Swallows Day Parade - she was part of it. Now back and glued to the eagle cam!

I check in every now and then, but I can't just watch it. I get bored when there is no activity. I live for excitement, LOL.

What color is the egg? I can't tell if her back tail is up in the air and that is the white egg or if that is just the back tip of the eagle.

The egg is white or whitish. You can only see it when the parent gets off the nest and turns it.

I went shopping today with my BFF. My mom was on eagle watch since I had an opportunity to get out for the day.

Good for you getting out. Your energy must be returning if you went shopping all day!
I was just a teensy worried when I didn't see you anywhere on here. Glad all is well.

Thank you, Paula.
My energy has returned very nicely.
Although I think I overdid it the last 3 days.
I slept in this morning.
Any strange activity this morning?

I slept in too.
I haven't had any sound for the past few days. Has anyone else?
She's "checked" the egg about 4 times in the last half hour!

What fun! I'm watching, too!
We live very near the Potomac River, just south of Washington, DC and have a lot of Bald Eagles around. Yesterday we were driving home and one was sitting in a tree hanging over the George Washington Parkway, about 30 feet above the road. We drove right under him/her in our topless car--good thing he didn't, um, poop as we drove under!

There are several eagle nests around here. A few of them are up on the signs over the highway. It's very cool to watch them, but this is much nicer.

She(?) just turned the egg, I think? I got all excited that something was happening!
