I'll follow JudyB's lead & show some location pictures & maps.
This is a picture looking down on the nest from the tree that the camera is in.
Here's a map of Santa Cruz Island which is the largest of the 8 Channel Islands.
The nest is located at Pelican Harbor which is between Twin Harbor and Prisoner's Harbor.
And here's a map of all the Channel Islands

Nestorations have begun!
They were there for around 45 minutes. Dad (K10) kept leaving and coming back with sticks  |

Thanks, Lori. It's so good to see them both back at the nest. _________________ Cat Lover and now Eagle Addict |

Thanks for the pictures, Lori! I do like to get an idea of the place where the eagles are hanging out! And while we don't have that sort of detail for the Maine nest, I do have a good sense of the coast of Maine in general, so do feel as if I know what it's like around the nest. And it's very different than around the California nests, even if both are on the coast!  _________________ 2010 Eaglet Info |

JudyB... Isn't it funny! We make them a new thread "all their own" and as if on cue, they show up to their nest the very next day.
Not sure where to post Steffani's update but I guess this thread is as good as any.
Sounds like one new camera is about to go online at the Twin Rocks Nest which is also on Catalina Island:

Hi everyone,
Not much going on here in Catalina this week. Pete and I have been working in the office and in the field trying to figure out our camera situation. Today we went to the West End and tried to stabilize the camera and figure out why it’s zooming in and out by itself. We removed it from the pole and placed it on the ground a bit closer to the nest so now it shouldn’t move at all but, even after several hours of figuring out cables, we still don’t know why it’s zooming in and out. We decided to turn off the zoom for now until we go back out there, which would be pretty soon.
Tomorrow we’ll begin setting up some equipment for the Twin Rocks nest. I can’t wait for you guys to see how beautiful their nest area is.

I really liked this watching this nest but the camera seemed to have alot of problems this past year...? Or it was just what program I was watching it in...? I think it always opened in WMP. Your pictures are so clear Lori - I don't ever remember the cam being that clear. I'll have to try it in the daylight...tomorrow I guess! I've been so busy lately I haven't had time to check in on all the nests! _________________ <i>Let us live by our faith, so that our faith may cause us to live.</i> |

Steffani & Dr. Sharpe had a wonderful & informative update this week with lots of pictures and videos.
Here's the link:
http://z7.invisionfree.com/CHIL_EagleCAM/index.php?showtopic=1873
I received my DVD that the Cumbrian's did and I just love it!!!
I also just made another contribution to receive The Eagles of Catalina Documentary DVD. It's so fun to get gifts with my contributions.
And then in their Cafe Press store they have lots of other beautiful things including Limuw t-shirts, etc. Here's the link to the store in case anyone here is interested and might have missed it...

YEAH Marcia! I was watching too.
These are from 8:15AM - 8:45AM PST
More nestorations
Dad is off to find a stick suitable for Mom
He found one but sure struggles with it and with Mom being in the way
So...Mom leaves & Dad works for awhile in peace
But... not for long. The nest inspector is back.
Off for more... They are still there working. It is wonderful to see them back.

Lori, so glad you could bring us the whole 45 minutes. I was so upset when I had to leave about the time Dad took off to get that huge stick. GREAT flying pics.  |

I was laughing my head off Marcia!
Mom is quite the character and sure keeps K10 in line.
Here's one more visit...
It's funny that these 2 never seem to talk to each other. They came into the nest quietly and left the same way. No chatter at all. The wind is loud though at the nest today. |
