Eyas Fly at 2nd location I am watching June 12 2009

1st one to leave the nest



eyas in the nest - jumping from branch to branch



Surprise a 3rd eyas arrival


It was thrilling to be able to see the first eyas at the 2nd location fly. WOW. I stopped in this morning and Janefer and Victor joined in on the street corner and the eyas decided it was time to fly - he did great - he flew across the road, across the neighbours house and into the tree. Yahoo. The female was in the tree across the tree watching. The second little eyas was hiding in the nest. The female was very aggressive trying to get him/her out to fly. She was pushing him around and vocal. She left and dad arrived at the tree with the first eyas with food. He then took the food to the nest. Want food come back to the nest. The male left the nest. Well then the fun started again - the eyas in the nest decided before he got into more trouble he better get active. He jumped from branch to branch, up and down for quite from time. What a show. Then the thrill of all we see a red tail land on the house. We all assume it is the dad. (1 eyas in nest, 1 eyas in the tree, mom in the south tree so it must be dad) NOPE it is another eyas. I couldn't believe my eyes. I had to run to have a look on the other side of the house but yes it was a 3 eyas. OK it was very exciting and I have some shots of all 3 eyas. Enjoy.
