PLEASE READ


2012 Nesting Season!

The PH nest of ... K-10/m & K-26/f ... has 1 chick that hatched on April 13th and was banded on June 10th as A-84/Marcus(m) and fledged on 6/29.

The SC nest of ... A-40/m & A-27/f ... has Twins that hatched on April 8th and April 11th and were banded on June 8th as A-81/Buster(m), fledged 6/21 & A-82/Phoebe(f), fledged on 7/2.

The TH nest of ... K-81/m & K-82/f ... had 1 chick that hatched on March 29th. A fox took the eaglet during the early hours of April 20th.

The WE nest of ... K-01/m & Wray/f ... has Triplets that hatched on March 29th, March 30th and April 3rd and were banded on May 25th as K-27/Athena(f), fledged on 6/27 & K-24/Megwich(m), fledged on 6/25. The youngest eaglet, #3, was too small to get wingblings so has two leg bands instead and is known as 5Z/Ge-nii(f), fledged on 7/12.

Check out the dates on the Calendar ... top right of this page ... for further information ... videos etc.

The eaglets are growing fast and it is interesting to see the kind of prey/food that the adults are bringing to the nests.

Please continue to post observations in the usual way ... should you observe a parent switch ... or notice that the adult is not on the nest ... it would be helpful to all of us ... if the time/s could also be noted/posted ... along with whatever-else you observe happening on the nest at that time.

Times of events on a nest are a great help to those of us who video when we are editing the footage.

Remember Dr. Sharpe has indicated in the past, that he also wants us to simply enjoy the experience of watching all the happenings on the nests ... and learn more about these magnificent birds ... through the wonder of the Nest Cams.



Just a few Gentle Reminders about posting on this thread. (Helps to save time when reading through it.)

Please remember that it is the CHANNEL ISLANDS NESTS ONLY...either on or off camera...that we post our observations/comments about.

There are FOUR nests with cameras online...so it is important to know WHICH NEST you are observing.

These nests are all in California...so it's Pacific Time on this coast.

We prefer that the Quote Button is not used on this thread...and if you must use it...because you are referring to something on a previous page...then take TEXT only...never captures or video.

Thanks!

“A request from Dr. Sharpe”

To make it easier for the biologists to see the prey deliveries, please limit the use of the blue fish to prey deliveries only.

Begin your post with the nest initials, followed by the time of delivery & the blue fish.

Thank you!

Bringing Forward:

After hours of working on the feeds yesterday, it seems, at least for my computers, that the embedded media players don't seem to work with Firefox running on Windows XP. Therefore I've added a second all cams page with only Ustream feeds. It is at http://www.iws.org/interactive_nestchat_allUstream.html. There is also a link above the West End cam on the page with the media player streams.
