Eagles are Nesting at the 5 Acre Pond!

[@ancientmichigan]

Yes, please install the live camera at your earliest convenience. We would love watching the wildlife. Thank you to your family for all you do for the wildlife.

[@EffectivImmediately]

Yes turn on the live view asap. 🙏

[@BackyardBiologyBoys]

The eagle tower platform is such an awesome idea. I might have to try that at my wildlife pond! Thanks for helping all that wildlife!

[@mike_w-tw6jd]

Was lightning protection added?

[@athena546]

then we can watch the eagles move in as well

[@r3m0rs34]

agreed

[@nullc0ntext]

This is by far better than television in every possible respect. So happy you share your joy with us, it's amazing stuff.

The little small hawk looking birds are called American kestrels, they are actually a member of the falcon family. 😁👍

[@nixer8984]

I love their "V" tails.

[@thewildlifer]

Yup

[@TheDejakal]

I was just about to say this. Good call!

[@kimp2678]

I agree. It looked like a female American Kestrel!

[@geoffhirschi803]

@@nixer8984 they do NOT have "V" tails. you are thinking something else. And just to make clear my expertise, I have been a falconer for 30 years and have handled many of them including keeping one myself for 6 months.

As soon as i heard "Connor" helped with the eagle cam, i instantly thought of the guy from Alveus sanctuary, and lo and behold. Love both these channels

Absolutely love your videos! I'm in my 70's and I'm not very mobile anymore so I'm living vicariously through you and your videos. Also I'm in a little one bedroom apartment. Keep the videos coming! You're doing an amazing job! Love watching all the critters! Thank you so much.

[@GlenDempsey-wo6bp]

Me too. I'd love to fish here but I'd never survive the trip! So vicariously.....

[@Pchi427]

Love the comments

[@geoffhirschi803]

@Bamabass - the brownish bird with the weird markings was a female American Kestrel. Both them and the blue birds are cavity nesters and need a fully enclosed nest box to set up shop. Each of them will require a different size nest box. If you build a kestrel nest box you have a very high chance that some will move in, and you would be amazed at how charming they are. The eagles are not going to begin nesting activities until Late Jan or early Feb at the very earliest.

[@bretspangler8717]

The live feed of Eagles Nest would be epic; it is a great way to chill and watch nature. That was a great job constructing the nest, it never hurts to have expert advice.

[@phylxguy5547]

[@lyserg1k]

I love his humility to seek expert help. Obviously a smart and capable guy, but he knows when to listen and learn. My kind of human.

[@pace7029]

Connor (the eagle expert) works for a really cool animal sanctuary called Alveus Sanctuary that does really cool online animal conservation work and has 24/7 livecams of a bunch of animals. I would definitely recommend checking them out especially if you like the live animal cams idea.

[@johngreen6521]

Amazing to see a crossover of two content creators I really appreciate :) Connor does such amazing things in his role at Alveus Sanctuary. Congrats on the nesting!

[@snappingbear]

What nesting? Where in the video does it show eagles nesting?

[@cameron6861]

Belted Kingfishers are burrowers. They makes nest in earth banks or cliffs. The little bird that went into the squirrel house was a red-breasted Nuthatch.

It was a Carolina Wren.

[@blackwolffishing4183]

You guys got the best pond and animal habitat I have ever seen in my 39 years I would love to see that in person Great job guys

[@Sammy31Dee]

I think he has an Air BNB cabin on the property

[@johnsmith-bt4ur]

The pond is looking amazing after getting to 5 percent of your work done . Don't forget stay wires or chines on the nest as you said cyclones. They pulse and vibrate poles and that one will have a heavy upside down bowl on top .Chines will save them and no climbing. Love how the bass have time for another bite if first one slips away. The live stream now would be good with millions of eyes watching . And Bucks rubbing is a good time to get cow scratchers and another camera. And my grandpa says , he's here now, Your seeding wrong, make swales as you go and the growth guides the water to where you want , use the slopes to your advantage.

Loved the night cam too. Besides the Hunter's Moon, great shot of Orion constellation, and the bright "star" to it's left was Jupiter. Also, inside Orion, in the sword, your camera also picked up the faint nebulosity of the Great Orion Nebula, M42. Additionally, Mars rose as Jupiter was moving out of shot.
