Hi Juju, I had a hard time finding the manual cams too. If you click on the first heading in the main body of information..."The Kent Eagle Cam" it will take you to the next page with the manual cams. I'm just getting on for the first time today, so I'm anxious to see what's going on!!

Thanks, Lucy. Got permission from Joyce in NJ from the discussion board to pass along this photo she got of the two eggs:

The snow is now almost gone on the NE Utilities nest and mama is basking in the sun. It's been a loooong week for her. What a girl!

OG, You're right, the NE Utilities nest looks much warmer now that the snow is melting. Juju, that's a great picture that you borrowed from Joyce. I haven't had much luck capturing pictures so far. Eagle Cam headquarters (Lorraine and Garry) are saying that the eggs should hatch between April 22-28. In previous years they hatched in 37-39 days. Last year it went 40-42 days, and as we know it didn't have a happy ending. Headquarters also says that due to the warm weather (70 degrees), Star and Spririt may be taking more breaks away from the nest. They say not to worry about the eggs because the parents are close by. Hi MGA!!!

Got MY very first look at the two eggs tonight. I also have a new technique for watching and taking pictures that doesn't involve making a composite picture with photo editing software. I open both manual cameras and then resize the windows so that I can have them side by side on one screen and keep going between the two screens hitting F5 or Refresh. That way when I see a good picture, I can do a printscreen and it captures both cameras at once. Here is my very first clear shot of two eggs:

Great shot of Star sitting on her eggs, on our local news just now... They showed a live cam pic (from another time of course..) and told that there were 2 eggs this year, and when they will hatch. Then they mentioned the website.. Cool!! King 5 - Seattle

Oh, great picture, Lucy! So, that is what people on the message board are talking about when they say Star is calling for Spirit.

Oh, Juju, she looked so tired and frustrated today. I don't think I ever saw Spirit sitting on the eggs.

LOL, she looks like she is squawking, "Henry! Get your worthless feathered tail up here RIGHT NOW!!!" I saw Spirit on the eggs this afternoon.

She's not on the nest. Should we worry? NE Utilities cam.

OG, I saw her on the nest this afternoon. Everything looked normal, thank goodness. Here is my best attempt today at catching Star off the eggs:

I'm still a bit worried as yesterday I caught her twice off the nest for extended periods of time. I hope the weather was warm enough that the eggs didn't suffer any...time will tell.

I hope all is well with the NU nest, too. Since the eggs are rarely seen these days, I thought I'd post this picture from today...unfortunately only 1 egg can be seen.

Lorraine, the homeowner beneath the Kent eagle nest, has a great narrative up at the WDFW website. http://www.wdfw.wa.gov/wildwatch/eaglecam/downunder.html

And we haven't had a panda pic in a while. Here is junior. Looks like he is on regular panda food nowadays.
