[malaise]

2. It's the first time I've seen pops

Very cool indeed

3. Whoaaa...what's that animal in the background...

to the left of mama?


On edit: Never mind, it looks like a horse. I didn't realize where this was, and how close it is to a road until the darn motorcycle noise took over. :(

[malaise]

4. LOL

Every now and then you hear a car horn. Sometimes they show you a stream.
It's too cool.

5. I checked it out on Google's Street View

You find the fish hatchery just south of the town and there's a house with a detached garage and a small barn right there at the crossroads (this is very rural, so easy to find). Between the barn and the garage there's a line of pine trees.

Beyond the line of pine trees you can see a huge cottonwood tree. I believe that this is the tree since there's a video at the Ustream site showing the area from the eagle's point of view. The house with barn and line of pine trees is visible.


Anyhow, if this is the right spot, they're not all that close to the road and the area is rural.

6. You are good

Great info.

After the devastation of the earthquake and tsunami and all the bombing and killing, this is a welcome relief - nature and life!!
:hi:

10. You are so right...My mom finally turned off the NHK

I think she couldn't absorb anymore of it. The enormity of what has happened.

She has been watching the eagles non-stop ever since. A feeling of comfort that life goes on. That even wildlife facing extinction can survive.

[malaise]

12. That's the truth

Look at the lovely horses

[Generic Other]

7. How did you do that? You would make a great private eye!!

You didn't even have the bird's address!

[OneGrassRoot]

8. LOL!

:thumbsup:

9. There's a video at the Ustream site showing the eagle's point of view

When I saw that line of pine trees and the small barn and learned that the tree was near the fish hatchery it didn't take long. It's so rural with so few structures. You can spot the tree from the road as you travel west along the road and spin around to look at the pines that sit between the house and the barn.

Google Street View is such a treat and I love maps.

39. What is the road that is in the main view?

and which direction is the camera facing when that road is in view? West/northwest?

Or rather, where is the tree relative to the fish hatchery? West? North? :shrug:

[malaise]

14. Finally saw the horses

lovely

[in_cog_ni_to]

11. Eaglet #2 FINALLY got some food!

I was so relieved! :) They're so adorable.

[malaise]

13. We needed this

Big time :D

[in_cog_ni_to]

15. Seriously.

:) It's nice to be happy about something for a change. :hi:

16. Thanks Malaise for posting this!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[dems_rightnow]

17. Pretty sure that's the male on the nest

And has been for the last 40 minutes or so. Now there's proof- not smart enough to cover up the one eaglet that's now exposed.

He's catching hell when momma gets home.

[eleny]

18. Two screenshots

One on the left keeled over asleep and the other got some eats.


Hey!

[KittyWampus]

19. I don't like the one little one outside of the next. Makes me nervous.

[malaise]

20. Momma's back

Hehehehhee - baby still outside

[KittyWampus]

21. do you think it's okay for that baby to be outside?

[eleny]

22. I'm signed in but can't get the chat text to be visible

Can you see it over on the right? Maybe those who know about this are commenting.

I wondered if this was the elder of the two and they're giving it some "outside" time.

[malaise]

23. I'm clueless

I hope mom and pop eagle know if it's OK :D

[Voice for Peace]

24. maybe the boundaries of the nest are more secure than they look in the video

that little guy keeps looking like he wants to fly! soooooo cute.. when he sits there looking at the parent but I wish he'd get all tucked in again.

[malaise]

25. All tucked in

He/she will slowly discover the nest and the world.

[eleny]

26. Time for a good snooze back under all that warmth

[malaise]

27. We needed this

It's lovely

[eleny]

28. That's the truth

[malaise]

32. Please screensave the feeding

So damn cute

[Voice for Peace]

29. glad i bookmarked this thread.. just went back and the baby had disappeared

glad to hear he's all tucked in... whew!

[KittyWampus]

30. Right?! I checked the videocam and didn't see the little guy and had to check here! LOL!

[malaise]

31. They're up again

She's feeding them

[dmr]

34. They're noisy little things!

I can hear them through my headphones, which I am not wearing!

:hi:

[malaise]

36. Hehehehehhe

Other birds are around as well

[Voice for Peace]

35. thanks! just caught the end of it before they were tucked back in

that one little guy is still so floppy

[in_cog_ni_to]

33. Eaglet #2 still has a hard time holding its little head up.

It seems to be eating well now though.

[malaise]

38. Feeding time again

Right now

[Voice for Peace]

40. looks like they've got some fresh food

what kind of animal is that?

[Duer 157099]

37. There are cars down on the road, and people walking around n/t
