It looks like the Three Bridges pair has chosen another location to nest this season. The camera still captures some interesting wildlife. On Monday March 7th there was alot of activity at the nest platform; a pair of mating kestrels, an adult and an immature eagle both visited the nest platform. The camera will be turned off the end of March if there continues to be no nesting activity.



February 25th
No eggs have been laid at the nest and the eagles are being seen infrequently. There is a strong possibility that the pair is nesting in another location. Yesterday 2/24/22 an adult eagle was seen on the cam and one was even defending the nest from a red-tailed hawk. If the pair is nesting somewhere else, then they could still consider the tower their territory. We don't know for certain if this eagle was from the 3B pair. We will have to wait and see what happens over the next few weeks.

February 17th
After not being seen on the cam for a week, the pair showed up early this morning. They mated twice and worked on the nest. They were there for a little over an hour. Hopefully we'll see them more over the next few days as they get closer to laying eggs.



February 10th
On Tuesday February 8th the Three Bridges pair brought grass to the nest and mated several times. But were not seen at the nest on Wednesday or Thursday. We are still two weeks out from when they laid eggs in 2021.

The Three Bridges eagle monitors have been kept busy the past few weeks. The pair has made only a few appearances on the nest cam. There is another nest in the area and eagles have been seen at that nest.
We aren't sure if the Three Bridges pair is the pair seen on the second nest or not. The nest monitors report seeing other eagles both adults and immatures in the area. Nest monitor Mary Ellen Hill got this photo of an adult with a pheasant near the second nest.

Last season the Three Bridges pair didn' start incubating until Feb. 24th. If they are on the same schedule this season then we are still a few weeks away from egg laying. Two adults were seen on the eagle cam Jan. 27th.
