April 9, 2012Since March 30 the big question has been ‘Where is female #4?’ Well, we do not know where she has been, however, we do know where she was this evening – back at the NBG eagle nest tree. At 7:20 the male and female #3 were in the nest. It was evident that both were nervous and behaving as if another eagle was nearby. About 7:35 the female took off. At 7:37 the male suddenly looked toward the camera and began screaming. I was certain it was because another eagle was really close, so searched with the camera. Female #4 was sitting about 20 feet to nest left on a branch. She sat there until 7:57 when she flew off. I think female #3 was still close but could not find her with the camera. As of this post at 10:00pm the male is sitting on the back branch of the nest tree.

Just a big thank you!
Another interesting night, huh Reese!? Yesterday the male & #3 hung around the nest area for hours until around 12:00. Today we didn’t see them at all, except for a real high fly by, until the male came in 12:30 with the fish. #3 didn’t follow him in as she usually does.
Response – Sure made it hard to watch Frozen Planet and Amazing Race tonight. Need to set up a TV next to my computers.
Thank you for the photo posts; she is lovely. This has been the best season this year, yes, better than eggs/eaglets…truly a learning experience.
Thanks so much for the wonderful pictures and all the work you do!
Reese, thank you much for posting on this. Lady4 returns to tease the bored back to the blog! LOL! Now – where is #2 and … #5 ? LOL!
The photos Shelly took April 9 of the ‘intruder’ look as if she is beautiful, and easy to identify in flight. Any ole nest can have eggs and chicks, look what the NBG nest has in 2012!
