Up and running!

This web site has been a gleam in my eye for about 5 years, since I began watching eagle (and other wildlife) cams, reading about birds, and working as a volunteer for raptor rehab organizations.  I have big plans for the site — probably way bigger than the time I have left to devote to it.

I have been waiting to get things up and running because I wanted to have a lot more to show for all these years of learning. I’ve been promising various people over the years that I really would do this, and I think most of them stopped believing me a while ago. So instead of presenting a finished product, I’m presenting a work just barely begun. The beginning of a new Bald Eagle nesting season seems like the right time to toss some pages out there.

I’m beginning with a bit of information that I’ve collected and tabulated about the nest cams, notably a calendar of egg-laying that covers the 11 years that observers have recorded nest activity and logged their observations, especially at the Hancock Wildlife Forum and the Channel Islands EagleCAM Forum, (and I extend profound thanks to all those dozens of journalists who have diligently and faithfully posted there — what an astounding collection of information!). Go to Bald Eagle Nest Cams on the menu to see what I’ve gathered so far.

The design of the web site is basic. I will probably be fiddling with it as time goes on, but right now I’ve opted to spend time on content rather than design.
