Locations for Camellia and KE,

There are new locations for Camellia and KE. Camellia has actually gone a little distance from his last location. KE seems to have a one-track mind. MagInAlex went looking for KE, but came up empty. Better luckl!

The Baton Rouge Zoo's Bald Eagle is still on the loose. They have gotten over 100 calls, but still need help if you are in the area and spot him. Call 225 775 3877 if you see an eagle in the area.

A Bald Eagle covered in a sticky, tarry substance has been admitted to the Wildlife Center of Virginia. Bald Eagle #13-1740 has had several (successive) baths and will likely need another round of successive baths to remove all of the subsance. The bird is also emaciated. I imagine it will need some time to recover.

There is a new book out. "Bald Eagle Nest: A story of survival in photos" by Kate Davis documents with pictures and anecdotes a nest that fledged four chicks. There is also a 'play' button at the above link where you can listen to a half hour interview where Kate recounts the year she spent observing this nest. It's interesting to listen to...

Here's a beautiful picture of two Bald Eagles. I'm not sure what they are standing on... Any guesses?

Hummingbirds Sleeping, NX Still in the News, Bald Eagle picture, DC Eagle Cam

This link contains three videos of Hummingbirds sleeping. I was so surprised. I never knew they slept like this!

For some reason, it still seems to be news that NX has been in Stafford, VA... I keep finding the same story on different web pages, as far away as San Francisco. This is not news! I wonder if it's a marketing campaign by the Wildlife Center of Virginia...

A Longmont, CO paper shows a picture of a Bald Eagle perched on a fence in someone's yard. I've not seen many pictures of Bald Eagles sitting perched so low to the ground. I've seen them on the ground in plenty of pictures -- in a clearing where they can see any threats long before they get close. This seems unusual to me...

There is a nest cam in DC that I found out about today through this article. The webcam can be seen here. I am getting a red x. But I'm having connection issues tonight, so I don't know if it's me or the cam...
