🦅Cholyn watching Chase’s stick placement. You know she’s gonna move it when he leaves. 😂

Sadly, the last egg in #Cholyn&Chase's clutch was accidently punctured & broke. While we anthropomorphize their "feelings", because that's what humans do, I believe they did mourn this loss in their own eagle way.

#Cholyn&Chase are pure joy. Chase couldn't even land with his fish gift before Cholyn grabbed it. She then proceeded to scarf it down in one gulp. Couldn't tell if Chase was impressed or dismayed.

Rough day for Channel Island nests.

At the #WestEnd, the ravens got the 17-hour old egg after just 5 minutes left alone.

Earlier, the remaining egg at #Cholyn&Chase's #TwoHarbors nest was accidentally punctured.

#Cholyn&Chase’s territory hosted many visitors today: a VERY large Southern Pacific rattlesnake, the Lucy Franco tugboat, and an intrepid rower. All the while, Cholyn remained on her couch watching it all go by.

#Cholyn&Chase's date night included a seaside chat & sunset stick wrangling. No matter where they are or what they’re doing, observing this special couple is always a huge gift.

At Two Harbors, #Cholyn and #Chase were relaxing till a Peregrine Falcon zipped by. They moved to the nest & kept watch. Fortunately there were no further PEFA disruptions.

It was quite cool to see what was happening all around Cholyn and Chase's habitat.

My daughter is very excited to follow Cholyn and Chase's story. She doesn't want to know if there's no baby however.
