​November arrives with still no photos of mating and both around the nest but Harriet not down in for good yet.  Coopers hawks in the area and the cranes are still together...One sub Adult Eagle was perched on S Side of Indrio one day...probably an older youngster returning to his home area...and a wood duck pair on the lake.....

November 19 ...Eagles are mating and seem to be near the nest more often during the day.  Looks like Harriet will be going down to lay the eggs very soon....about the same time as last year.
 
Christmas was once again a wonderful time for our Eagles....their behavior changed and we knew some eggs were laid.....

Jan 11th brought absolute proof of two healthy eaglets..... 
The little ones get fed and sometimes both adults leave for the snag in the savannah to take a break...they are being excellent parents.

​The Cranes have gone to nesting in the Savannah about Jan 11th also...now I only see 1 at a time..have yet to locate the nest.
​
The Eaglets continue to rapidly grow.....the end of January sees them at about 5 weeks old and constantly being fed.  The savannah is seeing the migration of Robins at the moment and they dine on the pepper and yaupon trees....

Cranes take turns coming to Lake Tozour to feed and relax....still haven't located the nest!
