Bel's Nest Log
B9 - Photograph by Gena Flanigen (5/6/17)
(84 & 82 days old). B8 woke up all alone this a.m.; perched on the right rail at 5:59:53am, looking a little lost & lonely; tucked his head back in for a few more Zzzzzzzz's. By 6:20, he was perched on the back rail; P flies past bottom right of the nest 06:32:55; 6:36 found B8 on the Cam pole; B8 was out on a limb at 7:35; D in BD w/fish 7:47:52; B89 to nest 7:48:22, D to LB 7:48:30 & out 7:49:09; B8 had mantled nicely & stood on the fish, but really didn't know what to do with it; by 8:10, B8 was eating; B9 in BD 8:20:30 and steals the fish, B8 moves over to the right rail; B8 steals some of the fish 8:39, so now they're both dining; B9 is finished by 8:42 & goes to LB 8:44:13; 10:42 finds both kiddos resting side-by-side. For the most part, the B's took it easy for most of the day; B9 takes off circa 5:15 (ApCam 54:47 per sela); M in BD w/squirrel 6:08:44, she & B8 dine together; ground crew reports that B9 is perched in a tree (not really visible) behind the nest tree; M to LB/out 7:16:37. As of 7:30pm, Bel reports that "Mom is perched two trees over, to the right and behind, the nest tree. B9 is perched one tree further away." Dad flew in and picked a high perch between Mom & B9 at 8:15pm.
