Updates on Bald Eagles NX, Buddy and KE, Port Huron Elks Golf Club Nest, Catalina Nest, Alcoa Osprey Cam

NX is still in Stafford County, exploring the Potomac River.

Ann posted a short video of Buddy from the weekend. She made a spontaneous trip to see him. Ann needs to be spontaneous more often!

Reese has posted an update for KE. She is a Bald Eagle from the Saw Pen Point nest in Virginia Beach. She is at the Hanover County landfill -- she's been there before. Bald Eagles are scavengers, and that makes landfills very attractive. You can see pictures of KE before she started exploring in Reese's 7/26/12 Eagle Trak post. You can learn about KE's transmitter fitting on Reese's 6/19/12 post. It includes pictures.

Bald Eagles also like Golf Courses. The Port Huron Elks Golf Club is home to a nesting pair of Bald Eagles.

I found a nice article about the Catalina nest. And FYI: The third egg hatched yesterday, 4/7. You can also view the nest live.

I've previously commented on the Alcoa Eagle Cam. Alcoa also offers an Osprey Cam. The Osprey are at the nest and are incubating at least two eggs. Osprey eggs are spotted brown, so they are harder to see in the nest.
