<::: 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=Ij3uMPMRrak
. . .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!

“A request from Dr. Sharpe”

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!

Bringing Forward

Posted 1/23/17 by Dr. Sharpe on the IWS Chat:

In regards to the TH nest/pair:

"I'm pretty sure at least one of the birds is part of the previous pair, but they are never close enough to read tags. Problem is that the male from the territory around the corner, who I expect will search for a new mate this season, also has no wing tags, just like K-81. I'm also not sure if the female from that territory still has both of her wing tags (she should be looking for a new mate too)."


In regards to the WE nest:

"I rebooted the 8 antennas needed to get the West End camera feed to the tower shooting to the mainland and the last two antennas are no longer connecting. All roads are closed because of flooding and mud (we got 4 inches of rain yesterday), so it will be a couple of days before I can get to the Two Harbors area to reset the antennas manually."

Island Fox barks very close to the nest. Another barks farther away



Whenever I hear the foxes bark, I also hear little sqeaky type sounds ???

A40 flies in from the left front, followed closely by A48. They begin to dig in the bowl. A48 from the 6-8, A40 from the 1-12

A40 scans the area between fluffing. A48 digs and digs

A40 begins to fuss with a branch that sticks up at the 1. He tugs and tugs, but the branch won't come, so he tries to break it.

6.47
A48 watches a bit, then returns to her digging. A40 watches out toward the front. A40 turns to the left and flies off. A48 tracks along the left to the rear
