George, I'm sure you can ask the doctor when you call about your appointment whether they have any concerns about leaving the staples in until next week?

Chicks absorb the yolk before hatching, so it doesn't have to be fed right away.
The parents just need to keep it warm and dry for now.

<3 Hello, Here it is March already. Slight chance of rain here. I got a chance to look at the Blackwater nest sight yesterday. It looked like the eagle had a sold coat of packed snow on her. Is it possible for them to freeze to death? I was shocked. Is it normal for them to lay in this type of weather? Off to work this am, hoping for a quite day. <3 eagleaddict

Hi all!  Wanted to tell my story....we didn't see K81 or K82 (which we were hoping for) BUT here's what we DID see:

Yesterday (2/28/09) my husband and I were sitting in our boat cockpit in Cherry Cove off Catalina Island.  We were watching the sun go down behind the ridge, when all of a sudden the seagulls went nuts - squawking and screaming and wheeling around - through their midst comes this bird that they obviously are not happy about - to my untrained eye, perhaps a hawk?  OBVIOUSLY a bird of prey by the way it was flying, biggish for a hawk, but kinda small to be an eagle, and definitely NOT bald eagle looking.  It landed on a rock on the hillside (north), and the gulls continued wheeling and crying - and then a raven showed up.  The raven kept going over to the rock where the eagle was and squawking at it - quite annoyed at its presence.  I leapt below and grabbed the binoculars.  Sure enough, ORANGE WING BLING!  OMG, it IS an eagle.  Wait, didn't I read something about golden eagles also having wingbling?  Hmmmm....my husband said "maybe it's young, it looks kinda gangly."  Then I remembered that bald eagles don't look like bald eagles for several years.  (When I got home tonight I looked on 'States of Plumage' and it looked very similar to the photo of A-40 at 1 year, but with more white.  That same weird skinny neck.)  So I'm peering and peering through the binocs trying to see what the tag says - I'm about 80% sure it was a 7, but it could have been a 9.  My husband couldn't make it out at all. 

My guess is that perhaps this was K-70:

According to the Wing Bling Reference Chart:

# K-70 (M)
From: Pinnacle Rock Nest.
Banded on: May 26/08
Fledged on: June 17/09 approx
Where now? Salta Verde .. southern coast of Catalina Island .. Catalina Update Jan 7/09
(Parents K-65 and K-92)
