The last report I had was that the male stepped on the last remaining egg and crushed it.<br />If there is an baby there, it is well covered up till morning. Then we shall see once and for all.

The live feed just started and the nest was empty for about 15 minutes, then the female flew in and messed around and just sit down.<br />No egg, no baby. All is lost for this year.<br />This pair is old, the guy that owns the property where they are says they have been coming there for 15 years or more that he knows of, so that makes them quite old and all the eagle experts says that they are past their prime for reproducing. They have not had a live hatching in the past 5 years.<br /><br />Grizzlybear cam is next. Wohoo.
