Hampton Chemical Collection, HK, Dr Watts, eagle locations, leucistic Bald Eagle, cam pics

Hampton has its first Chemical Collection of 2013 this weekend. We've seen how much our Bald Eagles like to visit landfills. Let's keep all of this yucky stuff out of the landfills! You have to be a resident of Hampton to attend this collection. Here's the ad:

HOUSEHOLD CHEMICAL COLLECTION
Saturday, March 16, 8 a.m.-noon
Hampton’s first household chemical and electronics collection for 2013 will be at the Public Works Operations Complex, 419 N. Armistead Ave. Bring unwanted chemicals or electronics for proper disposal and recycling. Chemicals include paints, solvents, gas and insecticides. Electronics includes computers, cell phones, stereo equipment and anything that plugs into a wall and uses rechargeable batteries. Additional collections in Hampton will be on May 18, July 20, Sept. 21 and Nov. 16. Information: 757-259-9850 or Hampton Customer Call Center at 3-1-1 or 727-8311.

Duane has some new pics posted on his site -- including some new pics of HK in his nest. HK looks so grown up!

Dr Watts has been out on a survey of Bald Eagle nests. Read about his report on the Richmond eagles. Dr Watts has also written about the recent survey on the CCB website -- pictures included.

We have new locations for our eagles:
Azalea's location
Camellia's location

NX has also checked in a few times this past week.

Here's a link to a picture of a leucistic Bald Eagle. This is such a beautiful bird! I love leucistic Bald Eagles and this one is probably the prettiest I've seen. I wish there was more than one pic posted...

Some cam pics from today (see my post of 3/13 for links to these cams):


I love the fuzzy legs on this one!

This is a nice family pic.

A good shot of the Alcoa eggs
