In a sense, R&J are still here - in their offspring.
Samson and his Bachelorette #2 mate spent the night tucked close together on a branch.
5.30 am Finds Bachelorette #2 in the nest poking around.

jd_AEF (Moderator):
Samson and Bachelorette #2 mated successfully

I have a feeling Samson met and courted this girl before we knew she existed.
Just a hunch.

Thanks Nadia, I didn't know they thought Delilah had visited the nest in recent years. Isn't it wonderful to know Samson and Delilah both made it not only through that rough 1st year, but made it to adult/subadult years!! :flirty:

Both are there now. Initially, they both worked on the floor of the nest, then Samson flew to a branch, but she remained and I'm wondering if she is working on a nest bowl now ...

Bachelorette #2 spent the night tucked in the nest.

I have a feeling Samson met and courted this girl before we knew she existed.
They are so comfy, she sleeps in the nest, they mated Jan 10 - and may have mated before we saw her. She *could* even be - um .. er .... with egg .....

4 am She wakes, pokes in nest, Samson drops down with her - silently, no vocals
PS

5.30 am Happy morning vocals between the 2
6 am Is she going to lay an egg?!?
NOPE!

6.15 am Vocals together, she still stands in nest
7 am Another PS
In between I hear sharp vocals - unsure from who
7 am She climbs up to his branch and both sing Dawn Song together
7.07 am excited vocals - both fly into nest
7.15 And they're gone. So I was fooled. haha

Glad she was in the nest overnight. When I left last eve, each was on a branch on opposite sides of the tree. It's terrible viewing for me this morning with all the spinning or freezing of screen. Noticed chat was experiencing same. Noticed yesterday on chat AEF Mod said it is not too late for a successful nesting season here.

Samson and B2 spent the night tucked on a branch - together

mod - 5:10 am vocals exchanged as a barred owl is heard in the distance.

6.15 am Both singing close together on branch
They sure seem closely bonded. I stick by my earlier opinion they met while we only saw Missy - and I still think Missy annoyed Romeo, AEF disagrees.

6.45 am Both singing close together on branch
This time I watched them. They looked right and left as they sang.
ya kno what? I think they were singin -
This tree is OUR tree! This nest is OUR nest! :biggrin:
https://youtu.be/yzpH3ZrLSEM

Then they dropped down into the nest together and messed around.
I'd like to see them bring in fresh grasses.

9.30 am Both have flown - but I've heard eagle chatter wafting on the breeze.
B2 doesnt sit in the nest screeching into the mic

Here are some ground shots of them at sunset (Samson on top branch):

:flirty: The sounds are beautiful and refreshing of all the birds singing in the hamlet this morning ... unlike where I am as there is only the deadening sound of snow ...

Post subject:  Re: NORTHEAST FL Eagles, October 2018- September 2019

They both left together at 732AM this morning and Samson has returned twice today to perch in the nest tree without her. He is relaxed. He loudly vocalized once while I watched, but I hear no vocals in the distance.

935am - Samson's talons. You can see his trademark "flat" spot of the middle toe of his R talon. It is not really a flat toe, but is wider than the other toes. He has some scrapes on his talons - possible war wounds.

936am - Samson - a handsome boy.
Image

951am - Samson's past beak injury healing nicely.

Post subject:  Re: NORTHEAST FL Eagles, October 2018- September 2019

is Samson th e one that was here with the previous female. the female with war wounds on talons. He is the one that was twitching???.

I would never have seen a difference LOL in the toes

Post subject:  Re: NORTHEAST FL Eagles, October 2018- September 2019

Hi Bev. Yes, he has had 2 females. He is same male that is part of the pair that arrived on 12/28. He is a 2013 hatch of Romeo and Juliet. AEF identified him by his talon, which Juliet stepped on when he was a few weeks old. He was spotted at the nest back in July 2018. The 1st female he arrived with has been gone for a few days. Apparently replaced by a new female, F2 that he seemed quite smitten with and mated with. Both have been doing nestorations together and sleeping side by side in the nest tree the past few nights, but she has not been at the nest tree since leaving early this morning.

Post subject:  Re: NORTHEAST FL Eagles, October 2018- September 2019

Yes bev a soap opera for sure
As the Nest Turns

Bachelorette #2 is a lover not a fighter. GOOD.
She is really fond of Sam and snuggles with him.
I hear them calling to each other even if not at the nest.

This is DEFINITELY their nest now.
I doubt we will see any more changes.

Yes Samson is Twitchy.
I'd never have called him that if I'd known he's a keepr - lol
Glad AEF are calling him Samson

:loveheart:

F2 came home with Samson at sundown. They did some nestorations and are now sleeping side by side in the nest tree. :15heartbeat:

Sam's natal nest is now his home
January 13, 2019 Sonday
In a sense, R&J are still here - in their offspring.
Samson and B2 spent the night tucked on a branch - together

6.45 am Both sing their Dawn Song together, to wake up the Sun
I looked on cam3 - it looked like it was SNOWING! But - its bugs! ugh
6.55 CLICK: IR is off, natural light appears
BOTH are twitching - SO ... its da bugz! No wind

O my, B2 is a beautiful eagle! I hope AEF names her soon, other than F2
There have been too many eagles to use F2, its misleading
This pair are MATES and this is THEIR tree. It sure looks FINAL to me.
After all, its Sam's natal nest so he has reason to own it

loza, bcaw ....
7.00 am Loud defense of the territory
- 2 white-tailed eagles flew in the background
