Wow it sure looks like several folks did enjoy the Caption this Photo, and my guess is even more continue to enjoy reading those responses...what fun.
While reading Lisa's info on the Blackwater Eaglet sight I came across an animated gif of a young eaglet learning to spot and catch a fish..as our eaglets mature and prepare to branch and then fledge I thought it would be great to share that small gif file..you can watch here
Lisa also gave us a link to a new eagle webcam out of the Netherlands These are white tailed eagles and closest in appearance to the American Bald eagle. I will be adding a link to their cam on the left side of the BLOG for those who want to follow them as they rear their eaglet. If you are curious and just want to see, you can get to the cam form here.
Today has also been quite interesting at Saanich. Here is a cute clip
From now on the FilmLoops will be a url to help speed up load time on the BLOG. Here is the link for todays FilmLoop:

May 4..You don't want to miss this movie...and ? maybe Great news at Hornby!!!
Written by Doug Carrick: on Hornby Island Eagles
April 28 - Estimated date for first egg to hatch.
April 29 - Saw both eagles sitting side by side on the perch tree for 20 minutes.
Conclusion: No viable eggs or the eagles wouldn't leave the eggs or chick that long
May 1 - Noises coming from nest. Eagle later landed in nest.
May 2 - Noises between eagle in nest and one in perch tree.
May 3 - Great noises from the nest when other eagles flew over the nest.
Conclusion: Perhaps there is still something going on in the nest.
May 4 - Low tide at 1:30 pm. Crows found a midshipman (9 inch fish) in the seaweed. The eagle stole the midshipman from the crows and flew it directly to the nest.
Conclusion: There must be a chick in the nest to feed.
I did not make a report earlier because I just wasn't sure what was going on until today.
