:thanku Great video Loza. That was 7am this morning and F2 was on the branch. So, Samson chasing another male?

I didn't realize the new female, F2 had so much gray on her head. Her tail also has gray. Today is the 1st time I saw her on cam in daylight. I thought it was a different female, but it is indeed her. Here are some pics from today.

1245pm - Samson brought a fish to the nest...possibly for F2, but she was not there, so he ate.
Image

1251pm - Samson was gracious enough to leave some leftovers for F2. :loveheart2:
Image

108pm - After Samson leaves, F2 arrives with a fish skeleton and eats the leftovers in the nest. You can see the gray feathers on top of her head.
Image

109pm - Gray on the back of F2's head too.
Image

116pmm - She was very interested in something overhead, but was not vocalizing. She departs.
Image

235pm - F2 returns to nest.
Image

236pm - A look at F2's gray tail feathers.
Image

243pm - Samson arrives (foreground) with vocals by both.
Image

Both are now perched in the nest tree. Windy day there.

Don't think so Shep. When Delilah visited the nest in recent years (16 or 17?) they were able to identify her @ that time d/t very distinct characteristics of her beak known since her time as a nestling here.

Everything is okay for now. When Samson 1st went into the nest where newest eagle was rummaging around, it looked to me as if he rushed toward it to run it off. But, eventually he went to a branch and is being very tolerant of visitor. It is a 3-4 y/o sub-adult per AEF mod with heavy markings still on head and a dark tail. They believe female looking for food and a place to stay for the night. At one point, she went out onto Samson's limb and tried to touch him, but he moved away from her. Samson continues to be tolerant of visitor. I feel sorry for her. She's really trying to be friends with him. New female is not currently in tree, but was awhile before this event. Some people believe she is in tree, but the extra object they are seeing is one of the cams belonging to the folks AEF has entered into an agreement with that are doing a documentary of this NEFL site. They have several cameras in tree that have nothing to do with the livestream of this nest. Read about this earlier. Can't wait for the documentary to come out!! BBL!!

:girlcrazy: Never a dull moment! Ground crew reports another eagle perched in another tree nearby....possibly F2. Poor Samson...he is being tolerant, but wants nothing to do with this 4 yr old sub-adult, who is scrounging for food. Could be another of Romeo and Juliet's kids. In 2014, Nick and Noel were their eaglets. Looks like this youngster will be sleeping with Samson tonight. I agree with you Swinwk, it really is a treat to know these youngsters made it past their first year.

607pm - Samson flies in and tries to run off the sub-adult, but then becomes tolerant.
Image

617pm - Beautiful sub-adult. AEF believes it is a 4 yr old.
Image

727pm - Sub-adult next to Samson.

There was disturbance of sorts a little while ago. Sounded as if a 3rd eagle called out and they both responded, but don't know for sure as I think sound may be off a little off from stream here. Can't check chat as I can't get it to roll past 5:41. She decided to go back to the nest and rummage some more. She reminds me of a man who has lost weight and his suit is hanging off of him. Too bad she didn't find a nice meal on the nest tonight. :girlsad3:

As I leave, the sub-adult has been back on the limb with Samson for quite awhile, although they are not as close as earlier. One of the ground crew reported there were many eagles coming and going in the hamlet tonight. Hope I get to see this gal before she takes off in the morning. She is a sweetheart and have best wishes for her. Also, looking forward to the new females return to the nest tree tomorrow to continue bonding with Samson and work a little more on that nest bowl.

7:20 pm I couldn't keep up with the eagles flying around tonight.
at dark one was perched in another tree, maybe b2
Samson is perched and a Sub Adult F arrived and tried to cozy up with Samson. He seemed resistent. They both remained perched until the Sub jumped into the nest.

11:08 pm jd_AEF
Midnight Samson is on a separate branch from sub adult
After quite a scuffle it appears Samson's new Female B2 is home and has chased off the sub. 1:09 am they mate

Nadia - do you think B2 is a 5 year old?
Sam sure is devoted to her

SWIN - so sub-adult female was romancing Sam.
LOL! Gotta be Romeo's son eh? Irresistable!

:girlsad3: Oh heck, I hope the sub-adult is okay and found a place to stay for the remainder of the night. Sounds like a sneak attack on new female's part, waiting till almost 1:00 AM! They remain on high alert this morning!

Saw a video of event on you tube. Hard to follow d/t scanning. No actual contact seen between sub-adult and new female though, so hopefully there was not. A lot of alert calls by all and the next thing you know the sub-adult is gone and Samson and New Female are on branch side by side alerting and Samson suddenly decides a mating is the thing to do at this point!

Nadia - I knew thats what AEF believes, I follow what mods post but I dont always agree - and there is a lot they dont post
I specificly wonder what YOU think

sharipf_AEF (Moderator):
Here is a video of the sub-adult visit from last evening
https://youtu.be/InopawYgQbo

sharipf_AEF (Moderator):
Since there have been so many females visiting this year and it's been confusing to all, we are going to give Samson's friend that he seems to be bonding with a temporary name of Girlfriend or GF for short!

I am still calling her B2

Nice pics
loza, I took this pic for RRP, thank you

Okay, I had to learn how to copy and paste on my new laptop. So far, AEF has not posted anything but sub-adults visit from earlier in the eve. This is the video of new female (now being called Girlfriend or GB) ousting the sub-adult, although you don't actually see d/t scanning for action, but hear I guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VN_L7SKVRsc To edit: Back with other info in a bit. Edit to add: Video is by Deb Stecyk and Copyright 2019 American Eagle Foundation, EAGLES.ORG
