Date Watcher Adults Eggs Young Observations Photo Edit
March 24 lost_bird 1 N N
Note: First sighting of the season, 1 bird on the (very large) nest that somehow survived the winter.
April 27 lost_bird 1 N N
Note: Saw one bird returning to the nest. The nest is so tall, it would be difficult to see an incubating female, but one was not apparent.
June 5 lost_bird 1 U N
Note: Tough to see inside such a huge nest, but dad was standing guard so best guess is that mom is there on eggs or chicks.
June 15 lost_bird 1 N U
Note: Either male or female sitting on nest, likely chicks inside by now but too deep to see.
July 2 lost_bird 1 N U
Note: Similar to last check, either male or female sitting on nest, likely chicks inside but too deep to see.
July 14 lost_bird 1 N 1 young standing
Note: Saw two birds sitting up on the nest. One appears to be a juvenile.
