Last Tuesday, April 2, one egg was laid in this sparse nest and Mom was rolling it around with her beak. (picture of that in the previous post) Friday, April 5, the 2nd egg was seen in the nest. Here, male had just moved a Large stick off the eggs and he was bringing in fish and flugg!!....
Naturalists working that day at the boat ramp close to this nest saw osprey intruders there. Two males locked talons in the air and spun down into the water! On this cam screen, we observed another bird land in the nest and Mom O lunged at it, chasing it away.....
The camera was switched to the other nest in Jug Bay. The resident male is about 12 or 13 years old.
Here is Cam Nest 2, seen from the boat ramp parking lot....
Here's one of our favorite residents grazing near the Visitor's Center!....
At the eagle nest in the PM, saw Mom Standing!!!!.....
Looks like she's tearing at some food....
Surprise, Surprise!!! If enlarged a lot, there's a tiny Bobblebeak below Mom's!!!....

Usually now we see ospreys in the trees near the Visitor's Center, but here's one of the juvie eagles with a fish....
Getting ready to take off because an osprey kept flying by closer and closer......
Seemed nice and peaceful at the osprey nest....
In the afternoon, got a rare sighting of both eagles at the nest. Mom was ready to take flight.....
Dad stayed to eaglet sit!.....
