October 14, 2024: What’s brown and sticky? DNF’s first stick of 2024/2025! News and NestFlix from Decorah North

October 14, 2024 RaptorResource

DNF eased our minds when she brought her first stick of the season to the North nest today! While we’re keeping our talons crossed for nest occupancy just a little bit longer, nestorations are a good sign that the pair has accepted our rebuild. If they do, it will be our fifth successful rebuild: once at N2B, once at N1, once at Fort St. Vrain, and twice at DNN! Perhaps we should start an eagle construction company? I guess we

October 8, 2024 RaptorResource

Come join us at 10AM CDT on Friday, October 11 for a welcome back chat at Decorah North and Decorah…and visit our regularly scheduled Mississippi Flyway chat at noon the same day! We’ve got lots to talk about and we’re crossing our talons that DNF and Mr. North will show up, especially since they’ve been visiting DNN 3.0! Mississippi River Flyway While we’re waiting for the Decorah cams to turn on, I’m watching the Mississippi River Flyway. We’re seeing a

Happy Falcon Friday!

August 9, 2024 RaptorResource

Here’s something for your falcon Friday! Newman was peacefully preening Monday at Great Spirit Bluff when a Red-tailed Hawk took a quick pass at him, chasing him away from his cedar snag. Thanks to Lizzy Eaglespirit for the heads up!

July 30, 2024: Last Decorah North Chat of the 2023/2024 Season and NestFlix!

July 30, 2024 RaptorResource

Even with the North nest falling, it was a great year for Norths! Come join us for the last chat of the 2023/2024 season on Friday, August 2, from 3:30 to 5PM: https://www.raptorresource.org/birdcams/decorah-north-nest/. We’ll be celebrating DN17 and DN18, reliving the year, and chatting about our plans! While the Norths and Hatchery Eagles are in the ebb of their year, we’re still seeing both couples in and around their nesting areas, including a thrilling visit by HD on July 26.

July 8, 2024: NestFlix and News from the North Nest and Trempealeau!

July 8, 2024 RaptorResource

We’ve got NestFlix from the North Nest and Trempealeau! The eaglets at both places are learning about life beyond the nest and stretching their wings – literally – as they learn by soaring, chasing, perching, landing, and taking off. Eagle college is a few months away, but it’s best to start preparing now, since the professors are not as acoomodating as Mt. North, DNF, and the Ts. I loved all of these videos, but I especially liked TE2 in front

June 26, 2024: News from the North Nest and Trempealeau

June 26, 2024 RaptorResource

The rest of the North nest collapsed this morning when the limb holding it broke at 5:03 AM. Our camera operators gave us a glimpse of the limb on the ground and we’re quite curious to assess the state of the tree as a whole. In the meantime, we’ll keep watching the eagles! The entire North family is doing well and we watched them across the pasture today. It looks like AP placement for DN17 and DN18 in Outdoor School

June 24, 2024: NestFlix and News from Decorah North, Trempealeau, and the Mississippi Flyway!

June 24, 2024 RaptorResource

We saw a real tug-o-fish today as DN18 and DN17 scrapped over a small trout that DNF brought in. Note that DN18 used his eagle table manners – gorging everything but one bite down quickly. No one can steal it once it’s down the hatch…exception here: https://lauraerickson.substack.com/p/parasitic-jaeger-in-july! Fledge and post-fledge activities are going on at all of our eagle nests right now and several people have expressed concern that the fledglings aren’t being fed. It’s common for feedings to decrease

June 21, 2024: NestFlix and Chill!

June 21, 2024 RaptorResource

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting our fledge fundraiser. You donated $16,000 dollars to support our education and research work yesterday, which is amazing! Your donations keep cameras streaming, scopes trained on peregrine falcon bands, autumn banding stations open, classrooms learning about bald eagles and peregrine falcons, and so much more! So again, thank you – and a special shoutout to our volunteers for a wonderful day. John and I had a great time chatting and

May 28, 2024: NestFlix and News!

May 28, 2024 RaptorResource

We have your NestFlix and news! The dynamic North nest duo turned 65 and 64 days old today. As we mentioned in an earlier post, fledge could happen in as little as five days, but is most likely to happen until ten or fifteen days from now. A few people brought up blackflies. Female blackflies, like female mosquitos, take a blood meal to obtain the protein they need to lay eggs. They are a normal part of nest life and
