In this video, you can observe M15 and Harriet transferring nesting material to the main nest nonstop. This actionpacked video features, stick transfers, liftoffs, and the delivery of very large branches and sticks. Dad decided to land in the Nono Zone ⚠⛔ and scare the photographers and visitors that were present at the nest that day. As we were ready to run towards the incoming ... I am not going to spoil it. I am going to let you watch the video instead. Harriet hung upside down twice while collecting nesting materials. On both occasions, she succeeded. Mom decided to test a few branches for their worthiness at NestMart (the pine tree closest to the southeast corner of the property, not to be confused with the Bayshore's Stick Store, or NestDepot ) to see if they were ready for collecting. By the way, we (the photographers) name the trees like stores just for fun, none of the names are officially recognized by the owners of the property. Our beloved couple continues expanding the nest with larger branches and sticks. Dad’s deliveries included very large branches/ limbs/ sticks. The couple is determined to have the nest ready for the next generation of eaglets. This video is part of a series that was recorded after hurricane Ian destroyed the main nest. My goal is to document and show the intensity, hard work, and dedication that our beloved eagles put into rebuilding.
