<::: PLEASE READ


The Nest Observations/Nest Watch thread remains open...as long as there are cameras...which are operational...to watch.

Normally the VCOE and the IWS work on the cam equipment during the fall/winter...so the cams may go off from time to time...but we are normally advised by them if they are working in the area.


Just a few Gentle Reminders about posting on this thread. (Helps to save time when reading through it.)

Please remember that it is the CHANNEL ISLANDS NESTS ONLY, either on or off camera, that we post our observations/comments about.

There are FIVE IWS nests with cameras online, so it is important to know WHICH NEST you are observing.

Please put the Initials at the start of your post.

. . .ALL NEST CAMS - http://www.iws.org/interactive_nestchat_allUstream.html
. . .BC = Bald Canyon on San Clemente Island - Temporarily unavailable
. . .FP = Fraser Point - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcGnSqnuUHU
. . .SC = Sauces Canyon (WMP) - http://media1.vcoe.org/eaglecam2 Temporarily unavailable
. . .SC = Sauces Canyon - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ftp5UhFJX0
. . .SC = Sauces Canyon (Explore) - http://explore.org/live-cams/player/sauces-bald-eagle
. . .TH = Two Harbors - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SJYl6eOEwg
. . .WE = West End - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6630LD-bFJc


These nests are all in California...so it's Pacific Time on this coast.

We prefer that the Quote Button is not used on this thread...and if you must use it...because you are referring to something on a previous page...then take TEXT only...never captures or video.

Thanks!

We are recording the activity at the Two Harbors and West End nests so that we can identify all the prey brought to the nests to calibrate the results of the nest excavations at the end of the season. I'd appreciate if you could continue to report the times that prey are brought to the nest so that later we can go through the recordings more quickly to identify the items. Thanks.

Maybe prey delivery posts could be started with  >>: even if it is a bird or unidentified,  so that we can spot them more easily.

To make it easier for the biologists to see the prey deliveries, please limit the use of the blue fish to prey deliveries only.

Begin your post with the nest initials, followed by the time of delivery & the blue fish.

We are recording prey deliveries at all the online nests, so please continue to use the blue fish for deliveries at any nest.


Thank you!

I believe an adult flew low at the left and landed in the tree, just behind the 1??

7.15
Then again, it was probably something smaller :rolleyes:

7.24
Cam freezes at 7.16 and hasn't returned yet. Refresh doesn't help



Not chasing the other cams any longer, so will not be posting on them

Island Fox travels the path at left and off screen. May have come up the path behind the nest ??

Yes, it did

SC -

G'morning, Jo.

I checked both of your observations and am once again amazed at your keen eye!

I watched the flyby several times at the highest quality and tried getting captures.
It definitely looked like it, but I can't get a clear enough capture to tell for sure.
I'm amazed that you even saw it! :blink:

The fox doesn't show up in captures either.
Was hard to see at all with all the new growth from the rain.


FP - Cam is zoomed back out.
Can see the water in a stream rushing by next to the nest.

Here's a gif showing the water. Not ever good, but it gives you an idea.

Given the view we can see of the Fox when it is roaming, you would think you would see deer roaming too...........Do they have deer here? or anything?


Thanks Jann


FP
Odd how that grass is turning brown, while everything else is turning green :lol:
